Yes, this is a known problem awaiting a patch. https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=693 The patch can go two ways. Something intellegent which scans $(PERL_INC) for .h files and generates the list from that. Or something dumb which is basically just a bunch of big lists of header files from 5.5.3 on up. I'd prefer the former if it can be done safely. To make life easier, I can first remove the duplication between the MM_VMS->perldepend and MM_Unix->perldepend if you can tell me why the MM_VMS version builds up $(OBJECT) a few headers at a time and comma seperated rather than all in one chunk and newline seperated as MM_Unix does. -- Michael G.
