I get exactly the same thing. If I cd to the t directory and run 'perl TEST' the same thing results. However, if I run 'perl base.cond' in the t directory it comes up ok on all of the tests. The rest of the base tests all work except for base.lex which fails on 3 and 7 and core dumps on 10. I haven't tried all of the others yet. If you, or anyone else, has any ideas, I'm open for suggestions.

I have found that, a lot of the time, turning off the optimizer will fix problems with software not running properly on a 3B2. This has been true of every release of perl that I have compiled on that machine. Recompile without -O and see what happens. Hope this helps. -- Dave Yearke, Calspan Advanced Technology Center ...!sunybcs!planck!yearke

Turning off the optimizer works fine with patchlevel 0, but I cannot get it to compile at all with the initial patches posted with the source in comp.sources.unix.. (fails at doio.c) Would someone who has successfully made this on a 3B2/400 or up please send me the rest of the patches (if any)? The system environment is System V 3.2 with the latest compiler.. ( cc: command - C Compilation System, Issue 4.2 4/29/87 ) Thanks.
