Re^2: MakeMaker dies looking for Perl headers

Of course I did, that's where I found out about PERL_INC. I don't see how modifying @INC or @LIB will help:

$ ~/perl5/bin/perl -e 'print "$_\n" foreach (@INC)' 
/home/jason/perl5/lib/perl5/5.8.6/x86_64-linux
/home/jason/perl5/lib/perl5/5.8.6
/home/jason/perl5/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/x86_64-linux
/home/jason/perl5/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.6/x86_64-linux
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.6
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/x86_64-linux
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl
.
$ ~/perl5/bin/perl -e 'print "$_\n" foreach (@LIB)' 
$ /usr/bin/perl -e 'print "$_\n" foreach (@LIB)'

Not @INC or @LIB. The INC and LIB parameters to Makefile.PL

Sorry, I don't see how INC or LIB is more applicable than PERL_INC. Looking at the pod, it seems that PERL_INC is the way to set the path to CORE. LIB sets INSTALLPRIVLIB and INSTALLSITELIB, which aren't applicable anyways.
