Just unzipped the binary... came "out of the box like that" ... I don't do
much fooling with Perl.

Should I add the following path in my 'config.site':
/dev/env/DJDIR/lib/perl5/

idea: Does Perl come with its own config.site (I didn't look) ? If yes, then
it got wiped out when I upgraded my fileutils. It would be nice, if this is
the case, some installation utility merged config.site files and checked for
validity.

Further question: if Perl is broken, why do other scripts (like autoconf and
libtool) work apparently fine for me? Don't they need Perl, or??
