Hi! lang/perl5/patches/patch-caretx.c has a patch that claims that NetBSD's /proc/self/exe sometimes returns '/'.
The patch seems to be there since 2008 (then named patch-ah): revision 1.9 date: 2008-01-08 16:19:39 +0100; author: apb; state: Exp; lines: +16 -4; NetBSD's /proc/${pid}/exe is sometimes a symlink to "/" instead of to the actual program name, so Perl's $^X or $EXECUTABLE_NAME variable was wrong. Change a test to detect this case, and fall back to using argv[0]. Is this still an actual existing problem in NetBSD or should I just remove the patch? Thomas
