#! /bin/bash # machten.sh # This is for MachTen 4.1.4. It might work on other versions and variants # too. MachTen is now obsolete, lacks many features expected in modern UNIX # implementations, and suffers from a number of bugs which are likely never # to be fixed. This means that, in the absence of extensive work on # this file and on the perl source code, versions of perl later than 5.6.x # cannot successfully be built on MachTen. This file enforces this # restriction.

In order to use perl's malloc(), the sbrk() system call # must be simulated using MachTen's malloc(). See malloc.c for # precise details of how this is achieved.
