Try the attached patch. It specifies --admindir explicitly. This is
sufficient for my setup. Hopefully, it will work for you as before.
Remaining problems:
1) The is no link to perl from perl5.00404, and native-install doesn't
handle it properly. At least it tries to use perl before the link is
created.
2) /dev/time cannot be created. Upgrade to bash-2.03, it executes
/dev/MAKEDEV properly.
