DBI module build failed on Unix

pthiru has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks, I am building DBI module on unix platform. when I run below command It throws an error like this.
The error text is on my scratchpad
however module build goes fine after this. I am afraid its failing in pre-requestie such as directory.
I am building DBI 1.6 from perl 5.16 (build before).
Pls guide me to solve this issue.
