I don't see anything of relevance in config/gen/makefiles/root.in > The attached patch resolves this by > > adding the definition of PERLDOC to config/gen/makefiles/docs.in. > > > > End of run with broken Makefile: > > herodotus:build-20080624 seneca$ make -j2 > > Do you get the same result with just plain 'make'? > Yes (although a fair bit more parrot is built before the make terminates). Switching to using a plain make doesn't start defining PERLDOC in docs/Makefile. I think the relevant change for me is not r19393, but rather r28687. Before r28687, whichever perldoc was first in the $PATH was used, but now it is what is defined as $(PERLDOC), a value that is not set in any of the Makefiles
