WTF?!? OK. Try these: $ perl Makefile.PL | tee foo.out $ perl Makefile.PL | ptee foo.out $ perl Makefile.PL 2>&1 | tee foo.out $ perl Makefile.PL 2>&1 | ptee foo.out $ perl -we 'system("$^X Makefile.PL")' 2>&1 | ptee foo.out You might check foo.out to see what shows up. Thanks for helping to track this down.
