I seem to have found a MakeMaker 5.0 bug with AIX.


The generated Makefile contains these lines:


DynaLoader.exp: Makefile.PL
$(PERL) "-I$(PERL_ARCHLIB)" "-I$(PERL_LIB)" -e 'use ExtUtils::MakeMaker
qw(&mksymlists); \
&mksymlists(DL_FUNCS => "", DL_VARS => "", NAME => "DynaLoader")'

Which causes MakeMaker to complain as follows:

pdx202 perl5/perl5.001/ext/DynaLoader > make
../../miniperl "-I../../lib" "-I../../lib" -e 'use ExtUtils::MakeMaker qw(&mksymlists); \
&mksymlists(DL_FUNCS => "", DL_VARS => "", NAME => "DynaLoader")'
Can't bless non-reference value at ../../lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm line 598.
make-3.71: *** [DynaLoader.exp] Error 2


Because of this I can't build DynaLoader and complete the perl installation. I don't have
time to track the bug futher.


My linux build also seems to fail about 1/2 way through due to a prototype mismatch for
vsprintf in util.c . Has anyone else had it work for linux?

You should see how fast Configure runs on a 200 Mhz Pentium Pro running linux!
(We announced them today so I can brag about my machine now. :)
