in reply to Error when compiling perl-script to executable

perlcc was a failed experiment that has been abandoned a long time ago (10 years or so). I don't think anybody here will fix it for you.

Can anybody explain to me why it still in core?

    I guess that if you are one of the rare few for whom perlcc works, you prefer that perlcc remains in the Perl distribution. Phrased a bit more provocative, the Backward Compatibility Polic(e|y) of Perl prevents that removal.
