 The problem came and went with perl5 updates during the last year. Just 
 now, it has reared its ugly head on a machine just upgraded to 
 netbsd-6. What appears to fix the core dumps for me is this hacks.mk

 ### On some i386 machines, Perl on NetBSD 6 will segfault while building
 ### Perl packages. Disabling thread support makes the problem go away.
