   See http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=44389.  I'm suffering 
   the same problem.  It has increased the size of my 'make' output log by 
   a factor of 100 -- though it has no affect, AFAICT, on anything 
   happening in 'make test'.

Oh, OK; I had assumed that #44389 was Apple-specific.

   It is really f*!#$%ing annoying, isn't it.

Absolutely.  At least it isn't hard to silence, albeit after
Configure.pl runs.

   No, the autodetection doesn't do all we want yet.

Makes sense.  Thanks, guys.
