perl 5.6.1-TRIAL3 won't install


I am trying to build perl 5.6.1-TRIAL3 under cygwin latest version
(1.1.8). I get a few more failed tests than the version that comes with
cygwin, but ok, I'll deal with it.

I specified /usr/local as the install prefix so as not to overwrite the
existing stuff in /usr/bin.

The problem is the make install step. Nothing happens:

matthew@HOME_NT_01 /cygdrive/e/src/perl/perl-5.6.1-TRIAL3
$ make install
GNUmakefile:244: warning: overriding commands for target `perlmain.o'
GNUmakefile:186: warning: ignoring old commands for target `perlmain.o'
make: `install' is up to date.

No it's not! There are no executables for perl in /usr/local/bin, no
modules in /usr/local/lib.

I'm stumped.

Any clues, anyone?
