[comp.sys.3b1] Perl 3.0.44

forrie@morwyn.UUCP (Forrie Aldrich) (02/27/91)

Anyone have a bit of luck getting Perl 3.0.44 compiled on the
3b1?

I use gcc... and no matter what compiler I use, I keep getting
a message "Virtual memory exhausted".  That's rather odd.  Could
someone tell me what I am doing wrong, or maybe send me a copy
of your 'config.sh' from the distribution that you used to 
compile it with?

Thanks

Forrie

How much memory do you have? I had 2 MEG when I compiled.  I think I got 
the same error message before either adding the -shlib or the -DCRIPPLED_CC 
or the 2 of them together.  It took me awhile to finally get it right.

try

gcc -shlib -DCRIPPLED_CC

Compilation took *FOREVER*
