Oops! Sorry, didn't check it.
I found the right installperl switch now (+v -f is required)
and uploaded:

http://rurban.xarch.at/software/cygwin/release/perl/perl-5.8.8-3-src.tar.bz2
http://rurban.xarch.at/software/cygwin/release/perl/perl_manpages/perl_manpages-5.8.8-3.tar.bz2

a2p5.8.8.exe is gone with this new +v switch, only a2p.exe, perl.exe and 
perl5.8.8.exe

PS:
+v says versiononly. So its quite obvious to the average 
perl-semantics-enabled guru that the +v switch installs the scripts 
without version suffixes. Hard to understand sometimes, but still like it.
