Hi John,

this is just a forgotten leftover in install test. The syntax calling
external perl scripts was first changed to be $PERL $TEXEXPAND and
afterwards for the sake of simplicity, $TEXEPAND was defined as
$TEXEPAND = $PERL + $TEXEPAND. The latter step broke the install
script.

As a quick hack, undefine $PERL during install-test, and put the
$PERL defintion back in later.
