[Ifeffit] Perl 5.8 and ifeffit

[Dr. Paul Fons]

I have now gotten perl 5.8.0 to work with both athena and artemis.  As 
Carlo said in an earlier message, the binaries of 5.6 and 5.8 are not 
compatible and it necessitates rebuilding compiled packages.  There is 
an OS X problem as well in that the make install command for perl 5.8 
doesn't seem to overwrite all of the files so I manually deleted the old 
installation and did a make install in the perl 5.8 directory.   The 
weird thing is that only tkatoms (B6) doesn't recompile.  I can't even 
do a perl Makefile.PL without getting an error.  Any ideas?


Here is a clip:

  perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.0 built for darwin
