I'm trying to install pgTAP on a FreeBSD machine and running into an odd problem:

sed -e 's,MODULE_PATHNAME,$libdir/pgtap,g' -e 's,__OS__,freebsd,g' -e 
's,__VERSION__,0.95,g' sql/pgtap-core.sql > sql/pgtap-core.tmp
/bin/sh /usr/local/lib/postgresql/pgxs/src/makefiles/../../config/missing perl 
compat/gencore 0 sql/pgtap-core.tmp > sql/pgtap-core.sql
cannot open /usr/local/lib/postgresql/pgxs/src/makefiles/../../config/missing: 
No such file or directory
Makefile:124: recipe for target 'sql/pgtap-core.sql' failed

That particular recipe is

sql/pgtap-core.sql: sql/pgtap.sql.in
        cp $< $@
        sed -e 's,sql/pgtap,sql/pgtap-core,g' compat/install-8.4.patch | patch 
-p0
        sed -e 's,sql/pgtap,sql/pgtap-core,g' compat/install-8.3.patch | patch 
-p0
        sed -e 's,MODULE_PATHNAME,$$libdir/pgtap,g' -e 's,__OS__,$(OSNAME),g' -e 
's,__VERSION__,$(NUMVERSION),g' sql/pgtap-core.sql > sql/pgtap-core.tmp
        $(PERL) compat/gencore 0 sql/pgtap-core.tmp > sql/pgtap-core.sql
        rm sql/pgtap-core.tmp

and it's the $(PERL) that's failing. If I add this recipe

print-%  : ; @echo $* = $($*)

and do

gmake print-PERL

I indeed get

PERL = /bin/sh /usr/local/lib/postgresql/pgxs/src/makefiles/../../config/missing perl

even after explicitly exporting PERL=/usr/local/bin/perl

I see that there is a config/missing script in source, and that Makefile.global.in references it:

src/Makefile.global.in:missing            = $(SHELL) 
$(top_srcdir)/config/missing

Any ideas why it's not being installed, or why the PGXS Makefile is ignoring/over-riding $PERL?
