perl 5.8.9 builds fine for me on 10.6.4. As noted earlier, please attach the log.

Replying to ricci@…:

perl 5.8.9 builds fine for me on 10.6.4. As noted earlier, please attach the log.

I had a look at the log file and found:

:info:build ld: in /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib, file was built for i386 which is not the architecture being linked (x86_64)
:info:build collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
:info:build make: *** [miniperl] Error 1

As /usr/local/lib is full of Leopard stuff created before upgrading to Snow Leopard, I decided to wipe the hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard. Now perl5.8 builds without any errors. Thanks for your help, my problem is now resolved.
