And with that, I finally thought to myself: I wonder if my version of MakeMaker is too old? On checking, I found that I had version 7.34, which the changelog says is from 19 March 2018 ... more than six years old! I upgraded to the current version (7.70) and found that `perl Makefile.PL` now runs without warnings (good!) ... ... but that the actual `make` now fails completely, saying `SimpleServer.xs:34:10: fatal error: 'EXTERN.h' file not found` [download] Oh well. Onward and upward!	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Thinking about this more, I suspect the problem might be that my `ExtUtils::MakeMaker` is now much newer than other related components. Since that would be a problem of my personal setup rather than Perl problem per se, I think I can let this drop now, with thanks to everyone who has chipped in.	[reply]
