Good question. In my mind, there are at any one time only three differnt versions of perl: 1) The base perl in FreeBSD 4.x (currently 500503) 2) The port lang/perl5 (currently 500601) 3) The port lang/perl5.8 (currently 500802) I'm not entirely sure at what version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker the PREFIX problem got solved in, but I do know that the version distributed with 1) is broken, and the versions distributed with 2) and 3) are not. But I do agree with your point - the comments and the code should agree. Patch incoming :) /Lars
