Dynixptx hints
Before I say anything else, let me say that the O'Reilly Perl Conference was super! In compiling Perl5.004_1 on our Sequent boxes running DYNIX/ptx 4.0 V4.2.1 we found that we had to add the following ccflags and cppflags to get the sockets io to work. cppflags='-Wc,+abi-socket -I/usr/local/include' ccflags='-Wc,+abi-socket -I/usr/local/include' This also could have been set by setting an environment variable _SEQUENT_CC_=-Wc,+abi-socket before compiling. I have attached an snippet of the socket(3N) man pages as well. This also must be noted when compiling and adding other modules as well. p5p-msgid: Pine.PTX.3.95.971002104651.12112G-200000@lancelot.aps.org
