gnome-perl: build problem

[Junichi Saito <j saito wanadoo fr>]

I have gnome-perl 0.3 (from CVS, as of 12/23/98) installed, but want to
compile and install the recent version (from CVS), as README in
gimp/plug-ins/perl recommend so. I just run 'perl ./Makefile.PL' and do
'make'. But it won't compile and the build aborts with:

cc -c -I/opt/gnome/include -DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H

I tried a tarball and a patched version by Marc Lehmann with the identical
result. So there must be something wrong on my end, but I can't figure it
out.

gnome 1.0.3
gtk+ 1.2
perl 5.00502


How do I manage to compile it ?
