Thanks!!!

And since latest upload of RPM4, we have a newer perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker
that override the core perl modules but doesn't have the core perl patch...

It did got installed:
http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/uploads/failure/cauldron/core/updates_testing/20111214235214.tv.valstar.20063/log/perl-RPM4-0.25-2.mga2/rpm_qa.0.20111214235303.log

Its testsuite doesn't even pass:
http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker/current/SPECS/perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker.spec?r1=163823&r2=163825

So we should apply a similar patch on top of perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker...
