- Perl 4.035 built out of the box for me on a 690MP running 4.1.2. One
- thing though, the Sun cc compiler got installed in /usr/local/lang/cc,
- not /bin/cc which is a different compiler. The admin had told me to put
- /usr/local/lang in my search path before /bin to use the "right" compiler,
- which I did. You might check if you're really using the Sun cc compiler
- you think you are.
