That may help with part of it, but PL_FILES is actually in MM_Unix.pm
and the relevant patch has been posted here:

http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2005-12/msg00568.html

Posting MakeMaker patches to the RT queue may improve chances of acceptance:

http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/ReportBug.html?Queue=ExtUtils-MakeMaker

but there are long intervals where the maintainer is busy with other things.

These fail because of the age-old piping bug that introduces extra
newlines when autoflushing is enabled.

When a test is marked as TODO because it is expected to fail for
known reasons but nevertheless succeeds, this is what we get.
Hopefully it means bugs have been fixed and we can remove the TODO
indicators.
