[comp.lang.perl] Perl dies on test op.undef under AIX-PS/2 1.2

ben@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu (Ben Fried) (07/21/90)

I've compiled perl 3.0 PL18 under AIX-PS/2 version 1.2, and it passes
every test except for op.undef, which generates the following message:

Illegal item (LEXPR) as lvalue in file ./op.undef at line 39, next 2 tokens ") ?"
Illegal item (LEXPR) as lvalue in file ./op.undef at line 40, next 2 tokens ") ?"
Illegal item (LEXPR) as lvalue in file ./op.undef at line 41, next 2 tokens "@ary;"
Illegal item (LEXPR) as lvalue in file ./op.undef at line 42, next 2 tokens ") ?"
Illegal item (LEXPR) as lvalue in file ./op.undef at line 43, next 2 tokens "%ary;"
Illegal item (LEXPR) as lvalue in file ./op.undef at line 44, next 2 tokens ") ?"
Illegal item (LEXPR) as lvalue in file ./op.undef at line 46, next 2 tokens "@ary ?"
Illegal item (LEXPR) as lvalue in file ./op.undef at line 48, next 2 tokens "%ary ?"
Execution aborted due to compilation errors.

Does anyone have any suggestions for fixing this?  Has anyone brought it
up successfully under aix 1.2?

Same problem here (I'm only running AIX PS/2 v1.1 IBM in oz can't seem to 
supply v1.2 yet), I've tried all combinations of '-g' and '-DCRIPPLED_CC'
with the same result. 

Any sugestions would be welcome.
