Heya,
I've upgraded my OS X machine from 10.6 to 10.7 (Lion), and seem to be
no longer able to build git.  Running 'make' results in:
    GEN git-add--interactive
make[2]: *** No rule to make target
`/System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Config.pm',
needed by `perl.mak'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [instlibdir] Error 2
make: *** [git-add--interactive] Error 2

There's no /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0 directory, but there is a 5.10 directory. Symlinking that to 5.10.0 gives me :

    GEN git-add--interactive
Writing perl.mak for Git
make[2]: *** [perl.mak] Error 1
make[1]: *** [instlibdir] Error 2
make: *** [git-add--interactive] Error 2

Running 'perl -v' shows I'm running v5.12.3. Where is that "/System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Config.pm" path obtained from? Any other information I can provide?
