In cc it sets a prefix to use, which I don't think `shareable' is... perl installation uses cc if you have elf, ld if not... pity it doesn't set command line options for cc that work too. I never did get Perl to build after going elf, had to reinstall the packaged aout version :-( When I told it to use ld instead of cc, it built OK, but half (alright, about a fifth) of the tests failed. If anyone has got Perl (5.004_04 or 5.005_02) to build on elf, I'd like to know how. -- Ben Smithurst : ben@scientia.demon.co.uk : http://www.scientia.demon.co.uk/ PGP: 0x99392F7D - 3D 89 87 42 CE CA 93 4C 68 32 0E D5 36 05 3D 16 http://www.scientia.demon.co.uk/ben/pgp-key.html (or use keyservers) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
