Comment (by dimpase):

 I am testing this on Fedora 23, and the missing header `EXTERN.h` is
 installed, it is in `/usr/lib64/perl5/CORE/`. This seems to be quite
 messy; [https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=19848 perl people
 recommend] doing
 {{{
 $ perl -MConfig -e 'print "$Config{archlib}\n"'
 }}}
 to get the path to default `perl` install. On Ubuntu I get
 `/usr/lib/perl/5.18`, on Fedora 23 I get `/usr/lib64/perl5`. Thus
 `polymake` ought to use the output of that `perl` call to construct a path
 to `EXTERN.h`.
