I hate that perl crud.

I don't like how git now doesn't compile just out of the box on a perfectly regular FC5 box.

The whole Git.xs stuff has been buggered from the very beginning, at some point somebody needs to just admit it.

Please?

And how come does this actually work for anybody else? I've got PPC_SHA1 defined, but I don't see what the difference is..
