I'm having some problems with Perl for NetBSD 1.6(SBC) on my LC III. I've
tried several times to get Perl installed and working, but none of my
efforts have succeeded.

First, I tried installing Perl 5.6.1. It installed fine, but whenever I
try to use a module (such as when I use perl -V) it says:

Perl v80482.2147483648.2147483648 required--this is only v5.6.1, stopped at
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1/Exporter.pm line 3.
Compilation failed in require at 
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1/m68k-netbsd/Config.pm

line 2.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at

/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1/m68k-netbsd/Config.pm line 2.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

or if the module does not require a specific version of perl, it hangs
until I kill it with ^C.

Then I tried installing Perl 5.8, but I didn't have enough disk space
(my disk is only 150MB, so this is not a big surprise).

I also tried using Perl 5.6.0 from NetBSD 1.5, but that didn't run
because the applications and libraries were of different kinds
(Libraries (/usr/lib/libm.so.0.1) are ELF, /usr/pkg/bin/perl is "demand
paged").

That's about all there is to say, and if anyone can tell me how to get
Perl 5.6 working, please do tell. I've included some system information if
anyone would find that useful.
