Autotools for kde-windows' emerge?

[Mat]

Thank you for reply so soon!

Is "PERL=..." for "./configure" only?
I exec `PERL=<path to perl 5.10> perl -V`, and it still show old 5.6
( but PATH=<path to per 5.10 dir>:$PATH perl -V` show 5.10... )

Removing perl did not work, as you said, because of the
#!/usr/bin/perl header, and also some hardcoded search path between
autotools components.

I will try to do some more experiments... thanks :-)

sincerely, Mat.
