    I came across this and am getting the missing seperator error even
    after replacing the 4 spaces with a tab.
    I get this on make:
    Makefile:90: *** missing separator. Stop.

    In the Makefile, there appears to be a bunch of junk:
    --snip--
    installhtml3dir=''
    installman1 <----- line 90
    INSTALLSITEBIN = /usr
    INSTALLVENDORBIN = /usr/bin'
    installvendorhtml1=''
    installvendorhtml3=''
    installvendorlib='/u
    INSTALLSCRIPT = /usr/bin
    PERL_LIB = /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0
    PERL_ARCHLIB = /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi
    SITELIBEXP = '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl'
    sit
    SITEARCHEXP = /usr/lib/pe
    LIBPERL_A = libperl.a'
    libc='
    FIRST_MAKEFILE = Makefile
    MAKE_APERL_FILE = Makefile.aperl
     --snip--

    I've tried this on two different machines, both with fresh installs of
    RedHat 9.
    Every time I get truncated lines in the Makefile, like the ones pasted
    above.
    I've also tried installing via CPAN, no dice.

    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    corey
