I mean that DOS memory managment slightly (very) worse than memory management
in Unix. And Perl need lot of RAM, at least more than 64K in real mode.
BTW Perl interpreter can not run in real mode, cos we can kill system with
just as much as 1 string even in protected mode under Unix. Only one system,
who do not allow me to do that was QNX. But it's realtime OS and it have to be
stable.

You mean Perl is such a security breach even under Unix/Linux?

You can get Perl as source code .tar.gz archive and compile with DJGPP for DOS,
32-bit, as far as I remember from my last trip to http://www.perl.com
