Perl 5.8 - make test problem (shmget. msgget)

I am trying to upgrade Perl from version 5.005_03 to 5.8 on a 4.8-RELEASE
FreeBSD VPS (virtual private server).

I did a 'pkg_add perl-5.8.0_7.tgz' but I then removed it because I was
getting this error:

/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/bin/perl: Undefined symbol
"nl_langinfo"

I then decided to dowload the source and compile it myself, but some of the
tests fail:

These are the failure messages:

I also tried with perl 5.6.1, but make test fails too.

Please help me.
