Subject: New Makefile.PL isn't honoring PREFIX
Working on a new ebuild of XML-DT-0.24 for Gentoo Linux, I noticed that the Makefile.PL isn't honoring the PREFIX pass. Not sure if this is due to the new error checking you've added for the LibXML/Parsers. The Makefile.PL with 022 works fine, only 024 seems to be broken. This is using perl 5.8.0 with ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.05.
Please check this one, and give feedback! BTW: how does one specify a PREFIX? I can't remember :-/ Thanks.

Bingo! Also pauses this time around for the question (the vanilla .24 displayed the question regarding parsers, but didn't pause for an answer). perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/some/build/directory If you check the Makefile that is generated, you'll see your PREFIX added in for the building of the module.
