[comp.lang.perl] ULTRIX 4.0 with PL28 using cc version 2.1

evans@decvax.dec.com (Marc Evans) (08/15/90)

Hi -

I have got PL28 running under ULTRIX 4.0 (both VAX and MIPS). I did have
a small
problem with the MIPS flavor, that I thought I would pass along. There
is a new
compiler coming which fixes many-many-many bugs in the previous versions
of cc.
This new version however seems to have problems with the volatile
modifier. I
found that "undef"ing volatile in config.sh allowed the compiler to
build. You
can even use -O (or other -O deviants like -On (0 <= n <= 4)) and perl
actually
passes the tests. I have yet to find other problems with reguards to
ULTRIX.
I will try to see what it looks like under OSF/1 later tonight
though...
