Subject: [PATCH] Fix git-remote for ActiveState Perl

For reason unknown a package in ActiveState Perl 5.8.7 must implement
READLINE method differently for scalar and array context. The code
tested to work for more sane and recent version of perl (5.8.8 shipped
with Ubuntu), so maybe it was always a requirement.
