system return value?

Greetings:

I'm doing the following:

system ("make | tee /tmp/make.log") == 0 || die "Make failed $?\n";

The problem is that the pipe tee is what is getting returned for a
status. Is there anyway around this problem? The make fails but my
script doesn't exit out....

Thanks in advance!
Tom
