Secure NFS: does not compile with Stable?

[Rob]

Hi,

I want NFS over secure connection (sNFS). This is available at
   http://www.math.ualberta.ca/imaging/snfs/
It needs sec_rpc-1.54 compiled on the system, but this fails. It
seems to require perl version 5.006 or later, but FreeBSD-Stable comes
with perl version 5.005_03. So Stable is almost OK, but not quite.
Here is what happens:

[ ~/sec_rpc-1.54]$ ./configure
 ....zip....
[ ~/sec_rpc-1.54]$ make
 ....zip....
cd perl; perl Makefile.PL
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Could not eval '
            package ExtUtils::MakeMaker::_version;
            no strict;
            local $VERSION;
            $VERSION=undef; do {
                our $VERSION = '1.54';
            }; $VERSION
        ' in SNFS.pm: Can't modify subroutine entry in scalar assignment at (eval 6) 
line 7, at EOF
*** Error code 2
Stop in /home/rob/sec_rpc-1.54/NFS.
*** Error code 1


What can I do now?

Thanks.
Rob.
