I have an HP-UX box running HP-UX 10.20 (as well as a few 11.00 and 11.i/11.11 machines). I have received a fair number of installation errors across a variety of modules during make. Most recently, I attempted to install Term::ReadKey (version 2.21) and I got the following output/errors:

[download]

(My apologies for the size of the errors.) I downloaded the module sources through cpan using 

get Term::ReadKey
. Root ran perl makefile.pl, make, and make install. Are there any command line configuration options that can be used to compile on HP-UX, or is this a problem to direct towards HP?

I tried using

If you make something idiot-proof, eventually someone will make a better idiot.
I am that better idiot.
