That's very weird!

PadWalker is used for things like debugging, introspection or meta-programing, but not in such kind of production code.

Looking into PDF::API2 on metacpan doesn't list PadWalker as dependency and I have no idea why it even should.

Maybe try replicating this on another clean machine or another Perl installation to be sure your environment is clean.

      my hunch is that 2 Perl installations were mixed, with both showing up in ENV and the c-compiler gets messed up.
