[comp.lang.perl] Perl 4.0 on AT&T 3B2/600G

kmeek@cti1.UUCP (Kevin Meek) (04/11/91)

I am having trouble getting perl 4.0 compiled on my AT&T 3B2/600G

I am running Sys V 3.2.2 


Does Anyone have 4.0 running on a 3b2 who is willing to share their Config 
setup??  

Running make compiles all programs OK but linking gives the following 
errors:

ld: Symbol close in /lib/libc_s.a is multiply defined. First defined in /usr/lib
/libnet.a
ld: Symbol read in /lib/libc_s.a is multiply defined. First defined in /usr/lib/
libnet.a
ld: Symbol write in /lib/libc_s.a is multiply defined. First defined in /usr/lib
/libnet.a
*** Error code 1


Being the optimism that I am I just edited the make file and took out
the reference to -lc_s. And everything linked ok.  

But make test fails several tests.  Upon further investigation
I found that it was core dumping on start up of these tests.
I commented out certain lines and got some parts to run.  

Below is a detailed breakout of what subtests caused Bus error Core dump to
occur. 

comp/cmdopt....FAILED on test 0                                      
   Core Dumps if tests 5,6,7,8  are included other tests run fine

comp/term......FAILED on test 0 
   Core Dumps if tests 3,4,5 are included other tests run fine

   Core Dumps on all tests because initial load of array causes core dump

   Core Dumps on sub reverse line so no other tests can be run that use this
                                                                            
op/substr......FAILED on test 0
   Core Dumps if tests 5,6,11,12,17,18,19,20 are included other tests run fine

lib/big........FAILED on test 0             
   Core Dumps at start up -- I couldn't get anything to run with this.
   
                               
Any hints as to what might be wrong would be appreciated.  
Thanks 

Kevin
