The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.
The X11 SDK needs to be installed from the XTools CD. It seems that
after the installation, the X11 include files are at a unusal
location. If so, then start installation by specifying the X11INC
variable, i.e.

    perl Makefile.PL X11INC=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/X11R6/include

This was seen on a Mac OS X 10.4.8 (Tiger) system.

It is expected that make test passes without failures.

Turning on True Type support with XFT=1 also seems to work, but there
are some font metrics-related test failures, which are
harmless:

Older notes:

For Tk804.025 to build properly on Mac OS X 10.2 (Jaguar) or 10.3
(Panther), Perl must be built dynamic, rather that the default of
static.  Use a Configure incantation similar to this:

sh Configure -des -Duseshrplib [-Dprefix=/path/to/your/private/perl]

Be sure you install the X11 SDK from the XTools developer CD - this
installs the X11 C headers files, else the make will fail:

    I installed the latest X11 from Apple, but the latest TK804 beta
    gives me the following:

    Using -L/usr/X11R6/lib to find /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.dylib
    Cannot find X include files via /usr/X11R6/include
    Cannot find X include files anywhere at ./myConfig line 332.
    Compilation failed in require at Makefile.PL line 32.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 34.

On my Panther (10.3.2) system, it can be found in:
    
    Applications->Installers->Developer Tools->Packages.
