I'd guess that you are using Perl 5.002b3. There was a problem in one
of the (perl internal) operations when doing numerical compares.

The real solution is to get Perl 5.002gamma, or revert to 5.002b2.

If that is not practical, you can edit each of the Makefile.PL, and
change

	if($MM_VERSION > 5)
to
	if($MM_VERSION >= 5)

This should work.
