Never mind! After I pointed out that this was the problem the OP mentioned that
this was a Perl that *he* built himself, using this commandline:

   ./Configure \
   -Dfirstmakefile='GNUmakefile' \
   ...
    -Dman1dir='/var/Documentation/man/man1' \
    -Dman3dir='/var/Documentation/man/man3' \
    -Dsiteman1dir='/var/Documentation/man/man1' \
    -Dsiteman3dir='/var/Documentation/man/man3' \
    -Dman1ext=1 \
    -Dman3ext=3 \
   ...

I'm going to write this one off as "carbon-based error" and leave it at that...

Could also be some kind of PREFIX error, I don't know why MakeMaker would be putting absolute paths into the Makefile for INST_MAN*DIR if not for some prefixy problem.
