I see the same, with a fresh checkout of revision 10014:cb98128649e9.

        $ ./configure 
        CC=gcc-mp-4.3 CXX=g++-mp-4.3 F77=gfortran-mp-4.3 
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib
        --without-framework-opengl --without-framework-carbon

          PASS   5507
          FAIL      2

I needed the patch attached to include <config.h> before any
<string.h>.  Is this harmless on other systems?  Is it safe to assume
that anyone doing "make -C src lex.cc" will have a running perl, or is
some other magic necessary?  jwe had a less ugly suggestion.

Cheers,
Rob
