I've opened threads on macosx@perl.org titled "Getting make test fail  
with Math::Pari" and
"Has anyone built Math::Pari on OS X 10.4.7"

I get the following errors during make test:

<snip>

I did a make install regardless and have the following debug output:

<snip>
computer.local: Remote version string: SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_3.6.1p2
computer.local: Remote protocol version 1.99, remote software version

Is there some trick to installing Math::Pari on OS X 10.4.7?

Any help would be much appreciated...

Thanks,
