I could also successfully build po4a with macports's perl (5.8.9).

Just for the record, my old iBook's perl was 5.8.1.

Perl 5.8.8 (which is the one you have on OSX 10.5.6), was also used
recently on Debian, and I had no issues with it.
So I do not expect an issue coming from the perl version, but maybe
something in the environment.

With macport, I only had to install perl, p5-module-build, and gettext.
(I also had to change the shebang of po4a, po4a-gettextize,
po4a-normalize, po4a-translate, po4a-updatepo in order to use
"/usr/bin/env perl" instead of the hardcoded /usr/bin/perl)
