See README.perl. It's where you told perl to install extensions.

this shouldn't happen. what were the exact commands you entered before the

It tries to build as a standalone perl extension (so it tries to find the
gimp). This should not happen as the top-level configure script tells it
not to do so.
Did you configure the gimp tree without perl? What did you do to enable
gimp? Did you do make distclean and re-run autogen.sh?
