make buildworld on nfs server works fine.
make installworld on nfs client dies:
===> gnu/usr.bin/perl/perl
install -c -s -o root -g wheel -m 555   perl /usr/bin
/usr/bin/perl5 -> /usr/bin/perl
/usr/bin/perl5.00503 -> /usr/bin/perl
cd /usr/obj/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/perl/ext/B ; make -B install  INSTALLPRIVLIB=/usr/libdata/perl/5.00503  INSTALLARCHLIB=/usr/libdata/perl/5.00503/mach
make: don't know how to make Makefile.PL. Stop
*** Error code 2 

Stop. 
*** Error code 1

Stop.

From-To: open->closed

Installworld over NFS works for lots of people, though there are 
a few gotchas; /etc/make.conf files on client and server must match, 
and the absolute /usr/src paths must match also.
