Is anybody else having problems compiling perl5.8 on 10.5? I'm getting a bunch of warnings like this:

make[1]: `lib/re.pm' is up to date.
cd lib/unicore && DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local-development/var/macports/build/_opt_local-development_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_lang_perl5.8/work/perl-5.8.8 ../../miniperl -I../../lib mktables -w Can't locate File/Glob.pm in @INC (@INC contains: ../../lib /opt/local-development/lib/perl5/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local-development/lib/perl5/5.8.8 /opt/local-development/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local-development/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /opt/local-development/lib/perl5/site_perl /opt/local-development/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local-development/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /opt/local-development/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at mktables line 2111.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at mktables line 2111.

To get around this, I did a custom patch by comparing 5.8.8 with the extraction using this command:

$ tar xvfj perl-5.8.8.tar.bz2
$ rsync -Pavz rsync://public.activestate.com/perl-5.8.x/ 5.8.x/
$ cd 5.8.x
$ diff -ruN ../5.8.8 . > ../patch.txt

This generates a 3 Mbyte patch but it seems to work.

Regards,
Blair
