There is something wrong with file /usr/include/math.h, at line 273.
Octal 337 is decimal 223. It is unusual to see ASCII characters > 127 in
header files. This could be indicative of a corrupted file. What does
math.h look like?

This is (usually) benign. It's just saying that a typedef or something
is being defined a second time. But you shouldn't ever come across this
sort of thing compiling perl... it has extensive tests that probe the
compile environment beforehand.
>Can anyone help ?
You did run Configure before kicking off the make, yes?
