In the end you will see

cd spamc
/usr/bin/perl version.h.pl
spamc/configure.pl: Can't exec `version.h.pl': No such file or directory at 
spamc/configure.pl line 74.
Makefile:1812: recipe for target 'spamc/Makefile' failed
make: *** [spamc/Makefile] Error 2

No?

Works for me. That `version.h.pl' file has a pound-bang header "#!/usr/bin/perl" which will fail if /usr/bin/perl doesn't exist or isn't executable.

What does "file /usr/bin/perl" return on your system?
