Making Perl extension modules is tricky because the perl-based
build procedure insists on using the same compiler options 
that was used to build the perl interpreter.  This can cause
problems if the same compiler isn't used.

Discover what compiler was used to build your "perl" utility
with the command "perl -V".  Then

    1.  Go to the top-level of the source-directory.

    2.  Execute the command "make distclean".

    3.  Set any environment variables as before.

    4.  Set the environment variable CC to the pathname of
        the compiler that was used to build the "perl"
        utility.

    5.  Execute the "configure" script.

    6.  Execute the command "make".

    7.  Execute the command "make install".

Let me know how it goes.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
