I think that both the BuildProgram and the BuildCommands tools
need to be replaced with the ones that came in the dmake kit.
Bear in mind that I could be wrong since I have not successfully
built perl (but I have built miniperl - all on a PPC).

Unfortunately neither the BuildProgram that came with dmake nor
the one that came with the Feb 2k GM MPW have a Version set:

VersionList BuildProgram
