If the files are supposed to be in the kit, then they are missing. They are not in the Tar file. I unpacked the Tar file on a Unix system and got the same result. Observe the following: > pwd /export/home/berryman/perl-5.8.1-RC3/ext/Encode > grep -i byte MANIFEST Byte/Byte.pm Encode extension Byte/Makefile.PL Encode extension > ls Byte Byte.pm Makefile.PL Also: tar -tf perl-5_8_1-rc3.tar | grep -i _t.h returns no results. I fetched my kit from: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/J/JH/JHI/perl-5.8.1-RC3.tar.gz Mark Berryman
