Created attachment 580284 [details] build.log Building perl-5.28.2-r1 with gcc-8.3.0-r1 on my armv5te fails with: Can't locate ExtUtils/MakeMaker/version/vpp.pm in @INC (you may need to install the ExtUtils::MakeMaker::version::vpp module) Compiling perl-5.28.2-r1 with gcc-7.3.0-r3 works fine.

@everyone, as a data point when talking to upstream, could you please test if this failure still happens with perl-5.30.0 ? You dont need to actually install perl-5.30.0 for that; it's enough if you run ebuild /usr/portage/dev-lang/perl/perl-5.30.0.ebuild clean test
I got the same error when compiling perl-5.30.0 with gcc-8.3.0-r1 (don't have gcc-7 anymore on my armv5 host to test).

I have had some success with EXTRA_ECONF="-Dd_u32align" emerge -av1 perl from https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=133803 Apparently gcc optimizes out the endian/alignment tests from ./configure And the bug was rejected by gc as invalid since unaligned access has undefined behaviour. I am more than slightly irked as the gcc people are engaged in such aggressive optimization that it has been breaking things for a while. I would like to have a "C" compiler, one that does not require c++ or keep changing things that have worked for years because you can move it to undefined.
