Also:

pp_sys.c:5742:11: warning: 'syscall' is deprecated: first deprecated in macOS 10.12 - syscall(2) is unsupported; please switch to a supported interface. For SYS_kdebug_trace use kdebug_signpost(). [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
        retval = syscall(a[0]);

Apparently make test doesn't work out of the box without installing that perl version first. Some (incomplete) patches are proposed in the link below.
