This looks like the last issue with Git 2.12.2. This time the machine
is Fedora 25.
I configured with PERL_PATH=/usr/local/bin/perl. The local Perl was
built specifically for this error, and it includes
ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm:
$ find /usr/local -name MakeMaker.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.24.1/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm
$ make all

Can't locate ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm in @INC (you may need to install
the ExtUtils::MakeMaker module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5

Failed to build Git
/usr/local/bin/perl is on path but Git is using the old one in /usr/bin:
$ which perl
/usr/local/bin/perl
It appears Git is not honoring the request for the updated Perl.
Thanks,
