<para>First adapt some hard-wired paths to the C library:</para>

<screen><userinput>patch -Np1 -i ../perl-&perl-version;-libc-1.patch</userinput></screen>

<para>Now prepare Perl for compilation:</para>

<screen><userinput>./configure.gnu --prefix=/tools -Dstatic_ext='IO Fcntl POSIX'</userinput></screen>

<para>Compile only the required tools:</para>

<screen><userinput>make perl utilities</userinput></screen>

<para>Then copy these tools and their libraries:</para>

<screen><userinput>cp perl pod/pod2man /tools/bin
mkdir -p /tools/lib/perl5/&perl-version;
cp -R lib/* /tools/lib/perl5/&perl-version;</userinput></screen>
