  Does setting prefix to the same directory as where your Git tree is

  Hmm, yes, I guess it is copied in place only during the installation.
We might add something like

	all:

to the perl/Makefile. Opinions?

  Thanks for the patience - I hope we will finally get all the remaining
Perl problems sorted out.
