The install worked OK (but took some time) on 32bit.  On 64bit I get these
errors:

[from install via setup.exe]
/usr/bin/mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man3/PDL.Config.3pm.gz: whatis parse

[running it again manually]

line 291, function: gnu_fnmatch
Abort (core dumped)

The second abort happened earlier than the first.


Running "mandb -c" again...
