It looks like the config script is using an option that your GCC  
doesn't support.  I wonder if HTML::Parser is mis-detecting the  
abilities of your GCC, perhaps with some sort of table where it says  
"Oh, you're using 3.xx of GCC, you can handle these warning flags."

To get around it: Edit the Makefile manually and remove the part  
where -Wdeclaration-after-statement is in CCFLAGS.
