The port in NetWare/ has been broken since 2009 and no-one has noticed.
Whodunnit? It was me! Oops. :-)

Make makedef.pl warnings and strict clean.
p4raw-id: //depot/perl@29740
did this:
+use strict;
and added the first `use` statement to makedef.pl
This must have immediately broken the build on platforms such as AIX that
use Makefile.SH, as Rafael fixed my goof 3 days later:

I had assumed that I must have broken Win32 and NetWare with that first
commit, but seems that actually it took me another two years. We have
this *fix*:

Hence NetWare/Makefile has been broken for at least 12 years, quite possibly
more like 20, and no-one has noticed.
