I was not able to reproduce this buildfailure. The only occurences are
on Peter's machine, so maybe there is a peculirity with his setup.

Which only reinforces my stance on having our own host-perl.

Anyway, care to have a look at this issue, please? If not for a fix, at
least for an explanation. Thanks! :-)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
