Yes, the integration of Perl in readers.conf (perl_auth and
perl_access) is relatively new. Older versions, like 2.3.5, have the
ability to use Perl for authentication via the old inn.conf-based
mechanism (used instead of readers.conf).

That's a tricky question, and probably depends on how you do it.
Just installing a new INN over the existing one is going to be hard,
because your package-installed version probably has all the files in
really weird places. It certainly can be done, but you're going to
have to be careful along the way. If you're seriously considering
this, I'd try to give more specifics.
