I suspect that the compiler used to build your perl(1) installation is not 
compatible
with the compiler you're using to build the perl(1) extension module for 
UDUNITS.
Unfortunately, the same compiler must be used for both.  This restriction is 
imposed
by perl(1) and not by the UDUNITS package.

Do you want the perl(1) extension module for UDUNITS?  If not, then you can 
cause
the build procedure to ignore it by setting the environment variabe PERL to the
empty string before executing the configure(1) script (remember to execute the
command "make distclean" first).

You can discover what C compiler was used to build your perl(1) installation via
the command "perl -V".  If it indicates that, for example, the SUN cc(1) 
compiler
was used to build perl(1), then you will have to use that compiler to build the
UDUNITS package with the perl(1) extension module.  This can be done by setting
the environment variable CC to the pathname of the same C compiler that was
used to build your perl(1) installation and then re-executing the configure(1)
script after first executing the command "make distclean".
