Here are some diffs to the _11 pods. I forgot to add perldelta to
perl.pod though.
And *PLEASE* fix the Artistic License so it no longer has the bogus
"whomever" misdeclined in the nominative case:
under the copyright of this Package, but belong to whomever generated
them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this
It should obviously be "whoever".

From: John Hughes <john@AtlanTech.COM>
Files: Configure config_H config_h.SH pp.c
Subject: perl5.003_11, Should base use of gettimeofday on HAS_GETTIMEOFDAY, not I_SYS_TIME
I've been installing perl5.003_11 on a SCO system that has the TCP/IP runtime
installed but not the TCP/IP development system.
Unfortunately the <sys/time.h> include file is included in the TCP/IP runtime
while libsocket.a is in the development system.
This means that pp.c decides to use "gettimeofday" because <sys/time.h> is
present but I can't link the perl that gets compiled.
So, here's a patch to base the use of "gettimeofday" on "HAS_GETTIMEOFDAY"
instead of "I_SYS_TIME". I also took the liberty of removing the special
case for plan9 (I assume plan9 has <sys/time.h> but no gettimeofday. Am I
right?).
