in reply to Module compile problem

I've come across this exact same problem on the Solaris platform (Solaris 2.8, perl 5.005.03, gcc 2.95.2) quite regularly when compiling modules with C elements. The cause of this which I was able to determine was the use of an updated ExtUtils::MakeMaker package being employed from my own module install tree when running perl Makefile.PL - When I removed my module install tree from @INC, more specifically PERL5LIB, the make and install went perfectly.

 

perl -le 'print+unpack("N",pack("B32","00000000000000000100000001011010"))'

    Hi, Did you permanently remove PERL5LIB from @INC or only did this for the install? How did you accomplish the removal? Edit the Makefile.PL? Do I need to rollback the version of MakeMaker to more generally fix this problem?
