Newbie question... I am using what appears to be the latest ExtUtils::Embed version, ExtUtils-Embed-1.14. When downloading the module with CPAN, the "make test" fails with the same errors as my application build (Net-SNMP with embedded PERL). (I missed the "make test" failing while downloading a big set of modules, and worked my way backwards to find the problem...). Also, the application Net-SNMP uses a configure script that cannot find perl_eval_pv, which is contained in ExtUtils::Embed. Correct? I copied the output of "make test" and "perl -V" to this email. If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate it!
