Patched perl from 4.003 - 4.010 and this is the output of
a make test:
othello:~/Apps/perl>make test
cd t && chmod +x TEST */*.t
cd t && (rm -f perl; ln -s ../perl .) && ./perl TEST </dev/tty
sh: 12250 Bus error

That's interesting, as far as it goes. I have no NeXT to test on, so
it qualifies as a datam, but not much more. You might try running some
of the test files by hand:
[in cshish]
cd t
foreach file (*/*.t)
$file
end
A stack trace might also be enlightening. Output from -D14 and such might
help. If you mail to me, send config.sh.
I'll be at Usenix Wed .. Fri but I should still be able to read my mail.
I say I "should" be able to, but that doesn't mean I will be able to--our
PSI node in LA has been running 4 customers on 3 modems for close to a
month, and I'm getting awfully tired of seeing BUSY all day long. Grrr.
They said there'd be a new modem a coupla weeks ago. Grrr.

This didn't happen to me under NeXTStep 2.0. In fact, a local mod to perl.c to manually type cast strcpy() and getenv() is no longer needed after I applied patches 4 through 10. (Thanks, Larry.)

I had no trouble compiling or testing patchlevel 10 under NeXT OS 2.1 on my machine, so it must be a problem local to Dartmouth. In fact, this was the first time that I didn't have to edit config.sh to counteract the spaggetti-ish NeXT #include's notion of memcpy and patch perl.c to get around the similar problem with index and strchr.
