problems installing lang/perl5 on OpenBSD

["Rakhesh Sasidharan" <rakheshster%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hi!

I am trying to install lang/perl5 on OpenBSD/i386 3.9, and have caught
up with some errors.

First off, while doing "make" it kept giving me error messages that
libperl.so.8.8 is not installed, even though I can see that while
compiling LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set to a location which has
libperl.so.8.8. So I just copied off libperl.so.8.8 to "/usr/lib" and
then things worked smooth. (While I solved this problem temporarily, I
am mentioning it here incase the perl5 maintainer wants to look into
this and need help testing some patches).

After that, things went smooth, till I do "make install":

===> Installing for perl-5.8.8nb2
===> Creating installation directories
/usr/pkg/bin/bmake install.perl install.man STRIPFLAGS= DESTDIR=""
        AutoSplitting perl library
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt/free/pkgsrc_work.obsd/lang/perl5/work/perl-5.8.8
./miniperl -Ilib -e 'use AutoSplit;  autosplit_lib_modules(@ARGV)'
lib/*.pm
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt/free/pkgsrc_work.obsd/lang/perl5/work/perl-5.8.8
./miniperl -Ilib -e 'use AutoSplit;  autosplit_lib_modules(@ARGV)'
lib/*/*.pm
/usr/pkg/bin/bmake lib/re.pm
`lib/re.pm' is up to date.

        Everything is up to date. Type '/usr/pkg/bin/bmake test' to run test 
suite.

*** Error code 9

Stop.
bmake: stopped in /mnt/free/pkgsrc_work.obsd/lang/perl5/work/perl-5.8.8
*** Error code 1

Again, I can see that "lib/auto/File/Glob/Glob.so" exists -- yet
"installperl" is unable to find it. So I tried setting the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH manually myself, but that too didnt work (btw, that
didnt work above either, for libperl.so.8.8. strange).

Any ideas what could be going wrong?

Thanks,
Rakhesh
