[comp.lang.perl] Failing op.stat

jsb@dasys1.UUCP (Lothar of the Hill People) (12/27/89)

I just made perl on my A/UX system and ran the tests (i.e. typed make test).
I failed test 31 (op.stat).  What does this mean?  What do I do about it?

If you have a file /dev/printer that is neither a character special file
nor a socket, it doesn't mean anything, other than the test isn't as portable
as I'd like.
