[Hey Tom, whadda you do?]. So I just got a Convex C220 running os 8.1 with the V 4.0 C compiler. So I try and compile Perl 3.0 pl 18. Taking all the Configure defaults, and adding in the -pcc flag to cc, I getting an almost working perl: op.pat..........FAILED on test 35 op.regexp.......FAILED on test 17 Anyone got a real working perl in the same environment? stephen pope advanced computing lab, lanl scp@acl.lanl.gov

Basically, I haven't seen that behavior, so have asked for his config.h file. --tom -- Tom Christiansen {uunet,uiucdcs,sun}!convex!tchrist Convex Computer Corporation tchrist@convex.COM "EMACS belongs in <sys/errno.h>: Editor too big!"

I have was able to build perl, patchlievel, on a c120 running Convex UNIX V8.1. The only problem that I have is due to a broken implementation of seteuid, it likes to set the real uid to to the effective uid if you are root -- sigh. This breaks the op.stat test. All of the other test work! William L. Jones

Well, I've got it working now, thanks to much help from Tom Christiansen at Convex. Problem was that my pl18 source didn't look like Tom's pl18 source; his had quite a bit of ``QUADS'' code that made the difference. Where it all came from I don't know... stephen pope advanced computing lab, lanl scp@acl.lanl.gov
