Changed paths:
M Makefile.SH
M makedef.pl
Log Message:
-----------
The Makefile must run makedef.pl with -Ilib on the command line
It can't rely on adding 'lib' to @INC in a BEGIN block because during the
build not all modules *are* in lib yet. For miniperl the two are not
equivalent - adding -Ilib means that lib/buildcustomize.pl is run, and this
sets up @INC properly to include all the toolchain modules in dist and cpan.
In particular, constant is dual life and hence not available as
lib/constant.pm until it has been copied from dist/constant/lib as part of
the build process. Hence with a parallel build on AIX, before this commit
there was a race condition between the job that builds dist/constant and the
job that builds perl.exp. Sometimes the race was lost, resulting in a
mysterious failed build.
All other users of makedef.pl already invoke it with the appropriate -Ilib
or -I..\lib, so this change won't affect them.

Changed paths:
M makedef.pl
Log Message:
-----------
Move `use strict;` *out* of the BEGIN block in makedef.pl
`use strict;` was moved into the BEGIN block in 2015 as part of commit
196f7c461ba85005:
export data symbols as data on Win32
This mistake wasn't spotted at the time, and meant that only the code within
the BEGIN block was subject to strictures.
