I installed Perl 5.8.2_5 on a clean FreeBSD 4.9R-p3 box, and got an error on Time::Hires. I grabbed the package manually, and got the same error: PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/local/perl-threaded/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/HiRes....ok 18/25 t/HiRes.t: overall time allowed for tests (60s) exceeded t/HiRes....dubious Test returned status 0 (wstat 15, 0xf) DIED. FAILED tests 19-25 Failed 7/25 tests, 72.00% okay Failed Test Stat Wstat Total Fail Failed List of Failed -------------------------------------------------------------------------- t/HiRes.t 0 15 25 14 56.00% 19-25 Failed 1/1 test scripts, 0.00% okay. 7/25 subtests failed, 72.00% okay. *** Error code 2 Does Hires use a math co-processor? The only difference with the kernel I ran yesterday, is that I commented out this: # options MATH_EMULATE On an AMD XP-2200; as I take it it has the co-processor. Still, could that be what is causing Hires to fail? More importantly, should I turn MATH_EMULATE back on for the AMD? Thanks, - Mark
