I have a week old CURRENT here for which I don't mess with the perl build at all. So whatever CURRENT's perl is supposed to do, mine does. :-) Mark Murray pointed out that the only significant difference between STABLE and CURRENT in this regard is the compiler. That's unfortunate, because this really does put any solution out of my reach. I'll mark the port broken for CURRENT. :-( Ciao, Sheldon.
