There are problems when CFLAGS are set: Perl has to apply its own
flags and doesn't do so if you specify anything (even CFLAGS=""). And
notably, Perl uses 64bits offset (the LARGEFILE something macro),
causing problems, but Ángel has the details. perl-sdl and frozen-ubble
are fixed, but more modules may be affected.

No problems seen on my side, with frozen-bubble now running fine on
i686, so signoff i686.

Rémy.
