I have a newly installed Fedora 14 system that I'd like to install various perls on to test different modules. I've got 5.8.9 already and was trying to get 5.10: perlbrew install perl-5.10.1 That hums along until it fails with the following error:
Making all in ext/ODBM_File make all PERL_CORE=1 LIBPERL_A=libperl.a make[1]: Entering directory `/home/mpeters/perl5/perlbrew/build/perl-5 +.10.1/ext/ODBM_File' cc -c -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fstack-protector -I/usr/local/incl +ude -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 -DVERSION=\"1.07 +\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.07\" -fPIC "-I../.."

Any thoughts about what I might be missing?
