As the topic says, I can`t compile perl, which isn`t that much of a
problem, except that every time I run emerge -u world, perl is one o the
first to go, and then fails, making me have to update everything
manuall. here is the "final output:

(quote start)
/usr/include/ndbm.h:21: unterminated string or character constant
/usr/include/ndbm.h:4: possible real start of unterminated constant
