 you probably have an old pre-Perl-5.8.0 installation (or parts of one)
 in /Library/Perl (the undefined symbols used to exist in pre-5.8.0 Perls).
 It seems that for some reason "make install" doesn't always completely

+overwrite the files in /Library/Perl.  You can remove the Perl

-   # find /Library/Perl -name '*.bundle' -print | xargs rm -i
+   rm /Library/Perl/darwin/CORE/libperl.dylib

-extensions beyond the Perl core, you will have to reinstall them, too.)
+and then reissue "make install".  Note that the above of course is

+If that doesn't help, you may have to try removing all the .bundle
+files from beneath /Library/Perl, and again "make install"-ing.
