+=head2 Building Extensions Can Fail Because Of Largefiles
+
+Some extensions like mod_perl are known to have issues with
+`largefiles', a change brought by Perl 5.6.0 in which file offsets
+default to 64 bits wide, where supported. Modules may fail to compile
+at all or compile and work incorrectly. Currently there is no good
+solution for the problem, but Configure now provides appropriate
+non-largefile ccflags, ldflags, libswanted, and libs in the %Config
+hash (e.g., $Config{ccflags_nolargefiles}) so the extensions that are
+having problems can try configuring themselves without the
+largefileness. This is admittedly not a clean solution, and the
+solution may not even work at all. One potential failure is whether
+one can (or, if one can, whether it's a good idea) link together at
+all binaries with different ideas about file offsets, all this is
+platform-dependent.

+=head2 The Compiler Suite Is Still Experimental

+The compiler suite is slowly getting better but is nowhere near
+working order yet.
