I was compiling and running Perl on my mpc8540 system (natively)...
I haven't had any problems with that.
$ perl --version
This is perl, v5.8.6 built for ppc-linux
----- my (old) install log says:
perl:
wget ftp://.../perl-5.8.6.tar.gz
tar ...
less INSTALL
rm -f config.sh Policy.sh
sh Configure
or
sh Configure -de (for default installation)
make
make test
and it should end up with something like:
All tests successful.
u=6.52 s=0.89 cu=415.95 cs=22.58 scripts=845 tests=87560
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/clemens/build/perl-5.8.6'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/clemens/build/perl-5.8.6'
and finally:
su -
make install

Sorry, no rpm's over here. Which PowerPC?

Should be no problem, I think. I started with that too, a long time ago.
Give it a try. You just need make sure that you don't run out of coffee! ;-)
