Sorry about the delay. My subscription e-mail to the list got delayed somewhere along the way, so I missed your message until I decided to poke at the web archive.

Try "perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor".

That doesn't seem to change anything at all, and checking "man ExtUtils::MakeMaker" and "perl -V:install.*", that still seems to install man files in /usr/local/man instead of /usr/local/share/man. And still generates /usr/local/System/...

I ran:
cd perl; perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor; cd ..; make; sudo make install

Maybe I need to tweak Perl's variables somewhere instead. Or my MANPATH. The latter is probably easier.
