Hi Tim,

I've tried to run the Makefile.PL under perl version 5.004_01 on an AIX UNIX machine, 
but all I get is the following error:

syntax error at Makefile.PL line 620, near "$_
        for "
Execution of Makefile.PL aborted due to compilation errors.

Do you know what this means and how I could fix it so I can proceed to step 2?
