The full message would be useful. The issue is lines 89, etc. of
*which* file.

This means you have an old version of Perl. The code *should* work
anyway, so since it doesn't I must have broken it. I'd seriously
recommend upgrading, but if you don't want to, here's a temporary fix:
in Handler/PerlExceptionHandler.hpp
there is a line:
#if !defined(PERL_REVISION) || ((PERL_REVISION >= 5) && ((PERL_VERSION < 5) ||
((PERL_VERSION == 5) && (PERL_SUBVERSION < 50))))
change it to
#if 1
That should force all occurrences PL_* to the old variable values.
If that *doesn't* work, send the output of perl -V (capital 'V').
jas.
