From clean slate Configure -ders, fine until:

Fascinating, that "tmp.10 211 201 0 10LIB_EXT)" part.
Where does it come from? At least it is not in config.sh.
MakeMaker 5.00? What is supposed to read in there? The "10 211 ..."
stuff is not in my environment (as in %ENV or getenv()), that I checked.

The same thing in Fcntl, ODBM_File, NDBM_File, POSIX, Socket.

Also:

: libsdbm.a
sh: -cd: not found
*** Exit 1
Stop.
*** Error code 1

(that one must be the @-cd vs @- cd issue someone already mentioned)

Yup! How stupid of me, how did I not remember that I belong to
those groups...now where's that \ not...

:-) Ah, that's the standard MakeMaker bug!

If you look at the MakeMaker code and think about what $( means to perl it
should be obvious why it's such a common problem. Getting perl to
write Makefiles using double quoted strings gets hairy sometimes.

I think at one point when I was maintaining it I had a little utility
to grep for the little rascals in the built Makefile.

Tim.

I think it is perl interpolating $( - and returning a list of groups.
There is a missing \ somewhere.
