Unfortunately the 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 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 but no gettimeofday. Am I right?). p5p-msgid: <01BBE77A.F6F37F80@malvinas.AtlanTech.COM> Subject: Make $startperl a relative path if people want portable scrip From: Chip Salzenberg Files: Configure Subject: Homogenize use of "eval exec" hack From: Chip Salzenberg Files: Porting/Glossary eg/README eg/nih eg/sysvipc/ipcmsg eg/sysvipc/ipcsem eg/sysvipc/ipcshm lib/diagnostics.pm makeaperl.SH pod/checkpods.PL pod/perlrun.pod pod/pod2html.PL pod/pod2latex.PL pod/pod2man.PL pod/pod2text.PL utils/c2ph.PL utils/h2ph.PL utils/h2xs.PL utils/perlbug.PL utils/perldoc.PL utils/pl2pm.PL x2p/a2py.c x2p/find2perl.PL x2p/s2p.PL Subject: LynxOS support Date: Thu, 12 Dec 1996 09:25:00 PST From: Greg Seibert Files: Configure MANIFEST hints/lynxos.sh t/op/stat.t Msg-ID: (applied based on p5p patch as commit 6693373533b15e559fd8f0f1877e5e6ec15483cc) Subject: Re: db-recno.t failures with _11 on Freebsd 2.1-stable Date: 11 Dec 1996 18:58:56 -0500 From: Roderick Schertler Files: INSTALL hints/freebsd.sh Msg-ID: (applied based on p5p patch as commit 10e40321ee752c58e3407b204c74c8049894cb51) Subject: VMS patches to 5.003_11 Date: Mon, 09 Dec 1996 23:16:10 -0500 (EST) From: Charles Bailey Files: MANIFEST regexec.c t/lib/filehand.t util.c vms/* private-msgid: <01ICTR32LCZG001A1D@hmivax.humgen.upenn.edu> TESTING Subject: recurse recurse recurse ...
