I did:

## (long ago):
git clone git://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git

## (just now):
cd perl
git clean -xdf
git checkout -b local-build v5.16.0
./Configure -des -Dprefix=$HOME/localperl
make install

I tried both that command (modulo local vs. localperl), and this command with just the Perl interpreter:

./configure --with-features=big --enable-perlinterp=yes --prefix=$HOME/localperl

In both cases, I got a working Vim 7.3.604. And in both cases:

:perl print "$^V\n"

Printed v5.16.0 to the screen.

I'm using gcc 4.6.2 under OpenSUSE. Maybe it's a case of something in a
newer GCC being more strict?

Is there anything in /home/bkerin/local/include that looks Perl-related?
