I've figured out the problem to some degree, but I don't know what's
causing it yet. I think it has something to do with the MakeMaker stuff,
which I have no experience with, so investigation isn't going very quickly.

Hmmm. That basically says that no files were installed. No scripts, no
man pages, no perl modules. Curiouser and curiouser. Any errors during
the build? What happens if you install the SRPM and do a "rpm -bi"?
It should build and install into buildroot. You can then see what files
it put where.
The problem I've been finding is with the man pages, basically it looks
like on some systems MAN3EXT and the INSTALL*MAN3DIR variables get set
to be "3pm" instead of just "3". I don't know why, but fixing the spec
file's files listing is pretty simple to grab those.
My RH7.3 machine builds the RPM just fine, but I've noticed
that on my RH6.2 box it decides that INSTALLMAN3DIR should be
"$(PREFIX)/lib/perl5/man/man3" which is definately wrong (causes the
build to fail as well).
Unfortunately, I can't just force the directory in the spec file
to something like /usr/share/doc/man/man* since it's different per
distro/version.
