Ok...

I guess I didn't look deep enough (I always seem to be replying to my own 
emails... *sigh*).  The error happens for me because I was using en_US.UTF-8 
as my LC_*, LANG and it didn't like the:

@kdeinits = split(/[\034\s]+/, $1);

on line 843 of admin/am_edit.

I switched my back to normal without the UTF-8 and it works fine now.  

Not sure if this is the same problem that anyone else had, but now at least I 
can compile again :)
