+This subdirectory contains some additional files which are necessary
+(or at least useful) when compiling Perl on MiNT.
+
+"Makefile" and "pwd.c" will build and install a fixed version of the
+pwd command if your system pwd is broken.
+
+The header files are wrappers around broken system header files. Make
+sure that this directory stands at first place in your include path
+when compiling Perl.
+
+The file system.c is an enhanced version of the system() function
+in the MiNTLib. It is strongly recommended that you insert this
+version into your libc before you compile Perl (see README.MiNT
+in the toplevel directory for details).
