I think it's a bit of a problem to do it that way.. I think it's
due to this, has anyone bumped into it before?

   "That's because a module (ExtUtils::MakeMaker) that Makefile.PL
   uses to generate the Makefile, has changed in recent version of
   Perl and has changed the order in which things are compiled. On
   most system the files in the xs subdirectory get compiled first
   and everthing is fine, but on BSD and AIX the file in the root
   directory get compiled first, which fails, because they depends
   on files in the xs directory. I have fixed this, but because of
   the change in MakeMaker I have to create a new fix for Perl
   5.8.x."
