	Do you have a different version of perl at /usr/bin/perl then at
	/usr/local/bin/perl?

	Run perl -v on both.  If they are different, copy the /usr/local/bin
	(newer I assume!) copy over the /usr/bin copy.  If this is not
	acceptable, change your path to put /usr/local/bin ahead of /usr/bin
	and try the build again.
