Subject: Uses wrong perldoc when building
The perldoc used during build seems to be referenced using the the system path, rather than being the perldoc associated with the running perl. This does not work if the system perl does not have a working perldoc (admittedly slightly odd).

That's not so rare. There are some distros that do not install perl-doc per default. What is odd is that 'make install' fails in such a case because the README cannot be built: perldoc -t lib/RPC/PlServer.pm >README You need to install the perl-doc package to use this program. Makefile:924: recipe for target 'README' failed make: *** [README] Error 1 (/usr/bin/make exited with 512)
