It appears that the top-level source-directory of the UDUNITS package
is "/usr/local/bin/udunits-1.12.4/src".  Is that correct?  If so, then
that's a very odd place to build the package.

Assuming that you don't need the Perl interface, then I suggest having
the UDUNITS build procedure skip that step by setting the environment
variable PERL to the empty string prior to invoking the "configure"
script.

When you've done that, then please send me the files "configure.log",
"make.log", and "install.log", which are described in the file
INSTALL in the top-level source-directory.

Steve Emmerson
