Ok, I hacked this so it works again:

On line 94 from /opt/csw/share/perl/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Install.pm it must  
say
     my(%from_to) = @$from_to;
instead of
     my(%from_to) = %$from_to;

I changed this only on build8s, please verify that this works.

Between the previous release and this one MakeMaker was updated to  
suite some
requests. The one shipped with CSWperl is already the latest and should
in general be compatible with Perl.


Best regards
