Yes there is a perl directory!

Here's the failing line #142:
@cd $(TMP); $(PERL) -p -i -e 's@^#!\S+perl.*@#!$(PERL)@' $(TOOLS) $(BINBIN)
$(BIN)
Sorry but I don't know which environment variables (if any) to include here
(I am a relative newbie)
I agree it appears that whatever "-e" option is looking for is missing. Does
the above line provide enough info? If not, what else do I need to provide?
