Bug description:
  [Impact]
  munin-memory plugin doesn't work on 64-bit 12.04 LTS.  This prevents munin from collecting memory usage data.

  [Test Case]
  sudo apt-get install munin apache2 munin-node
  (cd /etc/munin/plugins &&  sudo ln -s /usr/share/munin/plugins/memory .)
  sudo service munin-node restart
  (cd /etc/apache2/conf.d && sudo ln -s /etc/munin/apache2.conf .)
  Error in log file /var/log/munin/munin-node.log:
  2012/05/21-16:25:31 [13645] Error output from memory:
  2012/05/21-16:25:31 [13645]     Use of qw(...) as parentheses is deprecated at /etc/munin/plugins/memory line 189.
  No memory usage graphs in Munin web interface.

  [Development Fix]
  Cherry picked patch from upstream VCS - http://munin-monitoring.org/changeset/4358.

  [Stable Fix]
  Same as development fix

  [Regression Potential]
  None, the plugin is broken and changes are limited to this plugin only.
  Fix accepted upstream.

  [Original Bug Report]
  The error is on line 189, it gives this message which stops munin from being able to collect data:

  Use of qw(...) as parentheses is deprecated at ./memory line 189.

  Line 189 is as follows:

  or my $field qw(apps buffers swap cached free slab swap_cache
  page_tables vmalloc_used committed mapped active active_anon
  active_cache inactive inact_dirty inact_laundry inact_clean) {

  And needs to be changed to:

  or my $field (qw(apps buffers swap cached free slab swap_cache
  page_tables vmalloc_used committed mapped active active_anon
  active_cache inactive inact_dirty inact_laundry inact_clean)) {

  After this change it functions fine.
