I dont have a good answer. But editing the Makefile may hide the real
error .. which error appears when not editing the Makefile, and Google
with that error, no hints? what happens if -Dloclibpth="/usr/lib64"
is omitted? and of curiosity, what was the reason for going back to
perl 5.8 from 5.10? (i feel 5.10 is less stable than 5.8, but doesnt
get in my way).

OK, I tried this:
sh ./Configure -de -Accflags='-fPIC' -Dprefix=/usr/local \
-Dloclibpth="/usr/lib64"
one peculiarity of my make, gnu make 3.81, is I have to edit the makefile to
comment out all the lines like:
av$(OBJ_EXT): <command-line>
or it won't work.
So make works, make test works, but gives various warnings like:
makefile:612: target `lib/auto/Encode/Byte/Byte.a' given more than once in the
same rule.
makefile:612: target `lib/auto/Encode/CN/CN.a' given more than once in the
same rule.
After installing, if I try and run a CGI script with /usr/local/bin/perl, from
the command line, I get:
Attempt to free unreferenced scalar: SV 0xda2bf0 at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/HTML/Template.pm line 916.
Weak references are not implemented in the version of perl at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/CGI/FormBuilder.pm line 15
This script ran yesterday with the Perl 5.8.8 I had build all the modules
with. Trying to run perl -MCPAN also seg faults.
What gives? -fPIC seems to make the interpreter useless, but I can't build
mod_perl without it.
