Streange as it may sound, I downloaded the ExtUtils:Constant 0.16 version, compiled, and tested without a hitch. But the version that ships with Perl 5.8.6 source code errors out. The make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 TEST_FILES=lib/ExtUtils/t/Constant.t does not work when building perl. It will just run all the tests. If there is another option that I can use to get more detail I would love to use it and determine what is going wrong during the main perl compile make test.
