Daniel,

The file "make.log" contained the following:

The file "EXTERN.h" should be part of the perl(1) installation.  Is it?

If you do not need the perl(1) interface, they you can build the UDUNITS
package without it by 1) executing the command "make distclean"; 2)
setting the environment variables as before; 3) setting the environment
variable PERL to the empty string; and 4) executing the "configure"
script and proceding with the build.
