Configure done.
If you compile perl5 on a different machine or from a different object
directory, copy the Policy.sh file from this object directory to the
new one before you run Configure -- this will help you with most of
the policy defaults.
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

Research direction
Reproduce the failure from the package build and inspect the Configure output around extraction of op.c, perl.c, and Makefile. Check why the generated source files are being interpreted as shell input; done means Configure creates a usable Makefile and make proceeds without the reported errors.
