Hi Noah,

It's pretty easy to do a forced re-install, but before you do, would you
mind sending me the output of the following commands?

cd /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils
find . -type f -print | sort

I'd like to compare the list of files in your ExtUtils directory with
the list from my machine.

Also, did you originally install Perl from a package or did you build it
from source and install it from the /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8 directory?

Regards,
Greg
