It's certainly unusual; indeed, I always assumed .so files were required to be executable - otherwise why would every single distribution and installer make them so? I got the idea from Ubunut, where most of the .so files are 644. I don't have any firm reason to recommend it, other than paranoia and the feeling that files should have the minimum permissions needed to do their job. If a file doesn't need to be executable it seems a security risk to have the execute bit set. I don't know how someone could exploit that but if there's no problem having .so files chmod 644 I'd rather be safe than sorry. Except for /lib/ld-*.so. It needs to be executable. Everything stops working if /lib/ld-*.so is chmod 644.

It seems Cwd.pm is missing.
In a vanilla Perl source directory, it is in
${perl_srcdir}/cpan/Cwd/Cwd.pm
Perhaps Configure didn't do its job?
I only now saw the new instructions. Until now, I've been using
ancient 6.2 (and still am). It recommended running ./configure.gnu so
maybe you can try that script instead of Configure and see how it goes?

How does this work? By older post, I mean couple of weeks back.
