isohybrid has 2 variants
...did not know the Perl version did not support the EFI/Mac changes. For my use, that's critical, so I will not be using the Perl version further. (Thank you for the clarification there)

Now I'm confused, if Tails is able to use the .pl for the purpose of installing on OS X that would suggest it does have the EFI/Mac updates..?
If the Perl version was available, yeah, that would make my ISO build processes easier Smiling face with smiling eye...

We at Tails rely on isohybrid.pl for installing on OSX:
https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/installation/manual/mac/
Of course, this does not mean that the current syslinux team owes us
to maintain it forever :) Would it help if someone with the needed
Perl skills stepped up and volunteered to maintain the Perl version,
at least to port bugfixes from the C version?
Cheers,
