I finally got round to following Richard Siddall's suggestion re setting
MV_GETPPID_BROKEN to 0 (I agree with him in that this does not seem the correct thing \
to do when running threaded Perl)

But it solved the problem! Many thanks Richard

Like Richard, the distro is an x86_64 one, in my case Ubuntu

Thank you all folks for your assistance

Apologies for the verbosity of what follows but I was not confident of the 'make \
test' results I had initially and so decided to remove all traces of the install and \
start from scratch, what follows are extracts from the pertinent parts of the \
re-install.  Some files do have 'root' ownership in or under \
/home/interch/interchange but I do not want to change them at this stage until I have \
a better understanding of why the interchange program is not starting FYI
interch@interchg:~$ ls -al interchange/bin
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root root 30208 2008-08-16 08:38 interchange

The starting point was a download of the interchange-latest (last Monday I think!) \
tarball and then

./configure
Perl/Makefile.PL
Make
Make test

interch@interchg:~/download/interchange-5.6.0$ make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-Iblib/lib" "-Iblib/arch" test.pl
server/unixmode.......ok 1
server/startup........ok 2
link/unixmode.........ok 3
server/inetmode.......ok 4
link/inetmode.........ok 5
server/control........ok 6
6 tests run, all tests successful.


Sudo make install...............(not certain I needed a sudo here!) No errors

So still no UNIX socket
