So, something spookier is happening on this solaris box then. I can
see that if MakeMaker is used, the Makefile.PL is referring to INST_LIBDIR
which should indeed be private inside git's area. And in fact, I can
verify on my laptop that Git.pm was indeed installed into /opt/git/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/
I don't know why this isn't working on solaris. :( It might be that the
MakeMaker is too old, and doesn't respect the same prefix elements.
Call off the hounds... I can locally work around it by setting
NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER, and suspect I won't have anything further to contribute to
the core on this matter.
