[perl -V]
I'm inclined to say something's wrong with your perl installation.
MakeMaker should find Exporter, for example. The Tk version check is
basically:
use Tk;
skip if $Tk::VERSION < 800.021;
What does this report?
perl -wle 'use Exporter; use Tk; \
print $Exporter::VERSION; print $Tk::VERSION'
