>Description:
The Perl5 package, when it tries to build miniperl, includes /usr/include/ieeefp.h, which does not exist on VAX systems; VAX hardware does not do IEEE floating point.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/pkgsrc/lang/perl5-base && make
>Fix:
Add perl_i_ieeefp="undef" to the end of the CONFIGURE_ARGS line in the Makefile (obviously only suitable for fixing VAX)
