It looks like there are two errors, one with the version of Perl that
ships with RedHat, and the other is something that was 1.7 specific.

The problem with Perl, has to do with the SWIG tool not properly
supporting all possible builds of Perl and goes away if you build your
own version of Perl using the default build parameters.

I'm not sure why you are using such an old version. The 2.x series is
really what you want. We've even got some reports that it's working on
Windows now using 2.3.

Cheers,

PS. And please don't include poor Schwern on any more bug reports -
he's got enough to deal with without getting reports for random
modules that he has nothing to do with.
