perl-eperl-2.2.14-20.fc18 fails to build in F18: In file included from eperl_perl5.c:38:0: eperl_perl5.h:76:0: warning: "PL_defoutgv" redefined [enabled by default] In file included from /usr/lib64/perl5/CORE/perl.h:5038:0, from eperl_perl5.h:43, from eperl_perl5.c:38: /usr/lib64/perl5/CORE/embedvar.h:149:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition eperl_perl5.c: In function 'Perl5_ForceUnbufferedStdout': eperl_perl5.c:84:5: error: 'defoutgv' undeclared (first use in this function) This is not compatible with perl 5.16.0.
The problem is that the macro WITH_THX is not defined in perl 5.16. The definition was removed from malloc.c. The possible solution is in the attachment. Also the build require needs to replace db4-devel by libdb-devel.

Steven, I applied the patch. I hope you don't mind.
