[comp.sources.d] Perl patch #14, Larry Wall's mailpatch server

kevin@kosman.UUCP (Kevin O'Gorman) (05/31/89)

In mid-May there was a discussion in comp.sources.d about the frequency of
patches, and someone posted the method of getting patches from Larry Wall's
server.  I tried it for Perl, and found that I got a scattering of patches
in return.  Not all that I asked for, but some of them.

After several tries, I am still unable to coax patch #14 for perl 2.0 out
of the server.  One of the tries gave me everything else, and even a request
for #14 alone is giving me no response.

Can someone comment on why this might be?  Is number 14 especially long,
or something, causing it to not get through the mailers?

Can some kind soul mail me patch #14???

Thanks in advance.
