Subject: perl5 error on 'make install'

I'm trying to compile perl5.003 from ports-current on this 2.1.6-R
system. 'make' works fine, but 'make install' fails. The odd thing is
the path searched for ( /usr/local/man/man3/), has two forward slashes:

  unlink /usr/local/lib/perl5/man/man3/Socket.tmp
  Installation complete
  ===>   Compressing the manual pages for perl-5.003
  /usr/local/man//man3/Socket.3: No such file or directory
  *** Error code 1
  Stop.

Has anyone else experienced this? I've yet to find the file
that might be the cause of this. I suspect its a typo somewhere
in the 'work/perl5.003/' directory.

Thanks in advance.
