You missed the 'cd t' step, and it's likely the LD_LIBRARY_PATH bit is
important too, if you've built a shared libperl.so. harness lives in the
t directory (and there's a symlink to ../perl in there as well). These
failures are *probably* not a problem, at any rate not unless you will
be using syslog, threads, or Archive::Extract (which is used by
CPANPLUS, btw). It may be worth running the tests individually to
confirm they are unimportant failures, however.
