- I've recently come to this mainly Sun shop and miss my old tools.
- What are the tricks neccessary to compile perl4.035 on a sparc (IPX)
- under SunOS4.1.2? I have gcc as well as cc. My naive first attempt
- using cc gave compile time errors in perl.c:
-
- gauss(perl4.0): make
- `sh cflags perl.o` perl.c
- CCCMD = cc -c -I/usr/include/sun -I/usr/ucbinclude -O
- perl.c: 95: If-less endif
-
- Using gcc I compiled ok but the tests op/eval and op/regexp failed
- and lib/big dumped core. The one thing, alas, I don't have, is enough
- time to find what's going wrong ( I want to use my favorite perl
- script to replace a departed programmer's buggy c code in a crucial
- application). Surely someone has a recipe for how to build perl in this
- common configuration. Help!
