Failure is:
  configure: creating ./config.status
  config.status: creating infrastructure/BoxPlatform.pm
  config.status: creating lib/common/BoxConfig.h

  Can't open perl script "./infrastructure/makebuildenv.pl": No such
  file or directory

Applied the perl prefix patch and not run ./bootstrap maybe?

Cheers,

Martin.
