You may have found that if you havn't got the Sun Studio compiler (I.E. the one that the system perl was built with), then new modules won't be able to compile the C code components. I steer clear of touching the system /usr/bin/perl and have compiled my own into /usr/local using gcc from blastwave. I then pass whatever options I need to BackupPC's configure script to get it to place /usr/local/perl/bin/perl into the script #! perl is trivial to build (bear in mind one test will fail if you're in Solaris zone) Or I have mine tarred up at just over 9MB.
