This is a curious case. Porting/Maintainers.pl describes Exporter as
being maintained in blead. But the problem you report -- which is
accurate -- is limited to the Exporter distribution on CPAN. There is
no Makefile for Exporter in blead.

I'm cc-ing maintainers of Exporter in the hope they can respond.

Thank you very much.
