Well, after a bit of tracking, I notice this new comment in
MM_Any::clean() :
# XXX normally this would be a good idea, but the Perl core sets
# INST_LIB = ../../lib rather than actually installing the files.
# So a "make clean" in an ext/ directory would blow away lib.
# Until the core is adjusted let's leave this out.
# push @dirs, qw($(INST_ARCHLIB) $(INST_LIB)
# $(INST_BIN) $(INST_SCRIPT)
# $(INST_MAN1DIR) $(INST_MAN3DIR)
# $(INST_LIBDIR) $(INST_ARCHLIBDIR) $(INST_AUTODIR)
# $(INST_STATIC) $(INST_DYNAMIC) $(INST_BOOT)
# );
(The second problem I reported is a side-effect of the first.)
So I'm guessing that clean() was refactored in something less forgiving,
and that the special-casing for the core was accidentally removed. I'm a
bit lost in the huge diff between the core's current makemaker and 6.27,
so any hint is welcome...
