It replaces the -standard copy thereof. Note that I use perl's malloc. Note also -that I have turned the optimizer completely off (-O0). Optimizing -at -O1 or -O2 produces some errors that the test suite doesn't catch. -(Problems with alloca() and setjmp/longjmp, I think.) It should be -possible to optimize some modules but I haven't experimented with this. - -[NOTE: this hints file is already installed--lwall] - -I'm don't know if mkdir(2) works: I've left it undef'ed. It is certainly -broken in V.2. If you need fast mkdir's you may want to experiment with -this. - -The file patch.twg fixes a stupidity in /usr/netinclude/sys/time.h. -You'll need this if you have WIN-TCP; you can't use it if you don't -have WIN-TCP. If needed, apply this patch *before* running Configure. - -Make sure you tell Configure that any config.sh it finds is to be ignored. - -After running Configure and make depend, edit config.h so that -the CPPSTDIN definition has DEFAULT_CPP=/dev/null prepended. It should -look this this: - -#define CPPSTDIN "DEFAULT_CPP=/dev/null cc -E" - -This must be done by hand after running "make depend" and before running -make. I was unable to encode this into the hints file. - -This resulting perl should pass all tests. - --Len Reed -Holos Software, Inc. -holos0!lbr@gatech.edu (my main account) -lreed@ncratl.atlantaga.ncr.com (this account--on a customer's machine) - ------CUT HERE---- -#!/bin/sh -# This is a shell archive (shar 3.32) -# made 02/17/1992 16:36 UTC by lreed@ncratl -# Source directory /usr/acct/lreed/,q -# -# existing files WILL be overwritten -# -# This shar contains: -# length mode name -# ------ ---------- ------------------------------------------ -# 1593 -rw-rw-rw- patch.twg -# 176 -rw-r--r-- hints/ncr_tower.sh -# -if touch 2>&1 | fgrep 'amc' > /dev/null - then TOUCH=touch - else TOUCH=true -fi -# ============= patch.twg ============== -echo "x - extracting patch.twg (Text)" -sed 's/^X//' << 'SHAR_EOF' > patch.twg && -XThe following patch fixes /usr/netinclude/sys/time.h on the Tower V.3. -XPulling in <sys/time.h> with -I/usr/inetinclude makes a mess unless -Xthe <sys/twg_config.h> file is pulled in, too.
