| Subject: | Problem with --prefix ~username/perl/v5.8.8 in IO::AIO 2.3 (on MacOS X 10.4.8) |

When I try to configure the IO::AIO module, I get the error:
$ perl Makefile.PL
configure: error: expected an absolute directory name for --prefix:
~jleffler/perl/v5.8.8
configure failed, check it's output above and autoconf/config.log
$
That's very odd - my 'perl -V' output below does not include a ~jleffler
attribute - though $Config{prefix} as referenced in autoconf.pm does
indeed specify ~jleffler/perl/v5.8.8.
This is the first module I've compiled that has given that complaint -
and I've compiled a *lot* of modules under my Perl. I'm not sure what
is the best way of rationalizing the prefix, but I can tell you that
reinstalling Perl isn't one that will happen in a hurry.
$ perl -V
