perl -V reported that my perl was not compiled for debugging, so I set DEBUGGING in
Makefile.PL by adding "DEFINE => '-DDEBUGGING'". Sorry, I'm not that familiar with
MakeMaker, but a look through the docs and a check of the resulting makefile made me
think this is the way to do this. Now, it compiles, but fails to complete the tests
(while it passes them successfully without that switch). The following message appears
for all tests and seems to be essential:
"Reference miscount in sv_replace() at blib/lib/Event.pm line 184."
(This is Event 0.58.)

Really nasty, I know. I appreciate your help.
