The problem is that PostgreSQL is moving out of the realm of "hard-core geeks only" and more into the mainstream. I'd bet a number of our users have very little idea how autoconf and it's progeny work. It's probably not unlikely that those folks would be able to figure out where their perl was, but then not know how to tell it to configure. -- Jim C.
