Hi,
I made the following modifications to utf8.c :

      uv = NATIVE_TO_UTF(uv);

Where in utf8.c? Your description of what you changed is inadequate for
anyone else to understand the context of your change.

I tried redoing it with a clean build, but it still
fails. 

Why does configpm generate errors ? 

I don't know. I don't fully understand the workings of how perl's UTF-8
implementation is supposed to work on EBCDIC platforms.

1: Is that the only change you've made to the source code?
2: Without that change, how does your build fail? How do the errors differ?
