[sf-perl] update ExtUtils::MakeMaker ?

[David Alban]

trying to install some modules.  got:

ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 6.31 required--this is only version 6.30
at Makefile.PL line 7.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 7.

so now i'm trying to install updated ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.59.  make
test passes tests except for:

t/xs......................skipped
        all skipped: ExtUtils::CBuilder not installed or couldn't find
a compiler
All tests successful, 8 tests and 32 subtests skipped.

and when i try to make the make file for ExtUtils::CBuilder, i get:

ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 6.31 required--this is only version 6.30
at Makefile.PL line 7.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 7.

should i worry about the xs tests for MakeMaker being skipped, or
proceed with make install anyway?

i worry about messing up my perl installation.

thanks.
