Problem with File::Tem (p5-ExtUtils-CBuilder/gcc and some others)

[freebsd at tern.ru]

Hello Perl Team.

I   faced   a   bug   ("feature")  in  File::Temp that prevents use of
p5-ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.2802_1,1  and, as a result, build and install of
such   packages   like   p5-Params-Validate-0.95_3,  p5-DateTime-0.66,
p5-XML-Parser-2.40, p5-IPC-ShareLite-0.17

When I tried building the above packages I received different kinds of
errors stating that I do not have CBuilder and/or gcc and can't create
temp file.

After   a  lot of investigation I finally found that the problem is in
NFS that hosts my ports tree.

As I've understood, test code tries to create temporary file for  test
compile.    temp file is created with routine in File::Temp that tries
to  set  some FS flags/locks  that  do  not work on NFS. Although zero
sized  temp  files  are  created   successfully   (but   without   the
required   flags)  the  routine  fails and as a result compile of test
file  also  fails.  Build stops and empty temp file is left after each
build attempt. 

I have
FreeBSD 7.4-PRERELEASE #2: Tue Feb  1 17:50:19 MSK 2011 i386
perl 5.8.9_4
p5-ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.2802_1,1

FreeBSD   Ports   site   states  that  p5-ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.2802_1,1
requires perl-5.10.1_3l but actual port build does not state this and
tries to use perl 5.8.9 that I have.

If the above behavior is expectable it  would  be  great to have some
corresponding  info published, as I spent vast of time looking for the
problem of gcc/CBuilder in Internet but found nothing relevant.

PS.  Work  around - to copy the problem port directory localy (e.g. to
/tmp)

  
With best regards,
