I can try to give you some advice and make some suggestions, but the
entire solution is not readily apparent to me.

OK. This is definitely my fault/bug. I didn't expect full path names for
this value. So I'm searching the PATH for that long string. That should
be an easy fix. In the mean time just answer 'Y' when it asks whether
you want to install Inline::C.
BTW, this value (and many others that Inline uses) come from Config.pm.
It's always worth examining your Config.pm values when hunting down
Inline bugs. I'd be interested in the output of this command:
perl -MData::Dumper -MConfig -e 'print Dumper \%Config'

OK so far. One red flag I see here is '/afs'. I assume that's on an AFS
file system. I have no working knowledge of AFS. Does anyone else out
there use Inline on AFS?

Not good. The compile failed here. One thing you could do is:
% make purge # ensure a fresh start
% perl Makefile.PL
% make
% cd C
% perl -Mblib t/00init.t
% perl -Mblib -MInline=REPORTBUG t/01syntax.t
% perl -Mblib -MInline=REPORTBUG t/01config.t
etc ...
Then follow the REPORTBUG instructions, and send me the results.

This is a stumper. How could './_Inline_test' not exist. The other tests
use it. Hmmm :/

Wow. This one worked! I know it compiles stuff so... weird

More failed compiles.

All this is autogenerated. In other words, this situation should never
happen. How can the Makefile be out of date? Inline just generated it.
Is AFS playing tricks on me?

I'd definitely like to get all this squared away. But it will be hard to
do it remotely. I hope some other mailing list participants will make
suggestions. Start by sending me the requested info.
