Hi

I would like to create a system-wide variable PERLVER (I'm not religious
about the name) that will tell any (b)Makefile what version of perl the
current build has in it, so that (say)

FOO=	/dir/subdir/${PERLVER}/bar

in a Makefile will Do The Right Thing.

Is sys.mk the right or OK place to put this?

M
