I figured out the issue. In extutils-makemaker > 6.98, $perlflags was getting added twice to perl calls in generated Makefiles thus the double “-x86_64 perl5.18 -x86_64 perl5.18”. Patching out the second $perlflags fixes it. dbi-pm5182 now builds with the newly committed extutils-makemaker-pm5182-7.05-0.20 (it’s a prerelease version, thus the -0.20).
