FYI, sh ./Configure -ds -e -Dprefix=/usr -Dccflags="-g -pipe" -Dldflags=-Dman3ext=3pm -Duseithreads -Duseshrplib
This would make your new perl compatible with /usr/bin/perl5.8.1, if you want to use PerlObjCBridge, it is required to do so. (Please notice that prefix=/usr, so it would install to /usr/bin/perl) Since perl5.8.6's hints/darwin.sh already applied the one-line patch in dports, no extra manual patch is required. -- Cheers, Kang-min Liu
