When perl is compiled with cc and -DDEBUGGING, it dumps core on a SparcStation when you invoke perl with -D14 on a script with a pack or unpack operation. The problem is that Sun's 'cc' #defines sparc, and the source code is looking for #ifdef sun4 to add the extra stack required for the SPARC. The fix is simple: Add -Dsun4 to your 'cc' flags when you run Configure. Patch #28--Here we come!! Ed Mooring (mooring@antares.tymnet.com 408-922-7504)
