Ah. The light bulb went off. I haven't seen the .ph extension before. It's an output from the command h2ph
Here is a snipped from the man on h2ph.
h2ph converts any C header files specified to the corresponding Perl
header file format. It is most easily run while in /usr/includ
+e:
cd /usr/include; h2ph * sys/*
or
cd /usr/include; h2ph * sys/* arpa/* netinet/*
or
cd /usr/include; h2ph -r -l .
The output files are placed in the hierarchy rooted at Perl's a
+rchitec-
ture dependent library directory. You can specify a different
+hierar-
chy with a -d switch.
If run with no arguments, filters standard input to standard ou
+tput.
I haven't used h2ph before. This probably hasn't been run on your perl install so that's why file you are trying to require is missing. So you'll need to run this command on the headers that you're interested in using. Pretty low level stuff.
Again, a description of what you are trying to do would probably net you more feedback on Perlmonks.
"Look, Shiny Things!" is not a better business strategy than compatibility and reuse.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
