This is my patch patch.1l for perl5.001.

To apply, change to your perl directory, run the command above, then
apply with
    patch -p1 -N  < thispatch.

This patch fixes all the Configure & build problems for which I have a
solution.

After you apply this patch, I would recommend:
    make distclean  # or at the very least   rm config.sh
    sh Configure [whatever options you use]
    make depend
    make 
    make test

Patch and enjoy,

+Upgrade Traps and Pitfalls:
+
+Since a lot has changed in the build process, you are probably best off
+starting with a fresh copy of the perl5.002 sources.  In particular,
+your 5.000 or 5.001 config.sh will contain several variables that are no
+longer needed.  Further, improvements in the Configure tests may mean
+that some of the answers will be different than they were in previous
+versions, and which answer to keep can be difficult to sort out. 
+Therefore, you are probably better off ignoring your old config.sh, as
+in the following:
+
+	make distclean # (if you've built perl before)
+	sh Configure [whatever options you like]
+	make depend
+	make
+	make test
