See if you have a distdir in your workdir (a DBIx-Class-0.08...) If you 
do - delete it (make realclean helps). The problem is that make starts 
working recursively and craps itself when it encounters the inner 
makefile with the environment of the outer one. I tried to fix it with 
whatever was EUMMs flag to disable recursion, but didn't get it outright. And then I forgot about it.

Let me know if this is the issues - I will look into a more lasting 
solution (or you could, but I know your everlasting love for EUMM ;)

Cheers
