volks,
here is where I have problems with trying to do a
build of perl 5.6.1 on 10.1.5 - and see postscript
about upgrading.
when I am trying to do this on the disk local to
my machine the end of configure is:
....
Press return or use a shell escape to edit config.sh:
Doing variable substitutions on .SH files...
Extracting Makefile (with variable substitutions)
Extracting Policy.sh (with variable substitutions)
Extracting cflags (with variable substitutions)
Extracting config.h (with variable substitutions)
Extracting makeaperl (with variable substitutions)
Extracting makedepend (with variable substitutions)
Extracting makedir (with variable substitutions)
Extracting myconfig (with variable substitutions)
Extracting pod/Makefile (with variable substitutions)
Extracting writemain (with variable substitutions)
Extracting x2p/Makefile (with variable substitutions)
Extracting x2p/cflags (with variable substitutions)
Done.
If you compile perl5 on a different machine or from a different object
directory, copy the Policy.sh file from this object directory to the
new one before you run Configure -- this will help you with most of
the policy defaults.

so first off the bat I have run run
sh makedepend
by hand... and then I get:
.....
makedepend: no such file or directory: makefile [145]
make: *** No rule to make target `shlist'. Stop.
Searching for .SH files...
Updating makefile...
cp: makefile: No such file or directory

what I have is a 'makefile' of the form:
[jeeves:~/perl/perl-5.6.1] drieux% head makefile
# If this runs make out of memory, delete /usr/include lines.
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/arpa/inet.h
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/ctype.h
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/dirent.h
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/errno.h
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/gcc/darwin/2.95.2/g++/../float.h
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/gcc/darwin/2.95.2/g++/../inttypes.h
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/gcc/darwin/2.95.2/g++/../machine/limits.h
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/gcc/darwin/2.95.2/g++/../stdarg.h
av$(OBJ_EXT): /usr/include/gcc/darwin/2.95.2/g++/../stdint.h

These are not problems when I am trying to build on the
NFS mounted file system on jeeves... Which is where I
have to be to build darwin for ppc - since it has the
developers tools...
ciao

yes, as soon as we can iron out the glitches so that we can
integrate our mac's into the single sign on solution
where they will let us login though NIS,LDAP,Active Directory,
without having to have accounts created local on all of
them - then yes, 10.2 and we do all this over with 5.8.0
