I have successfully built the above release candidate under
Solaris 8 against an Oracle 10.2 Instant Client. The full
versions of things are:
SunOS 5.8 Generic_117350-26 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100
This is perl, v5.8.7 built for sun4-solaris-64
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.1.0
The resulting build fails one test. The error messages are:
t/10general.............NOK 1
# Failed test (t/10general.t at line 25)
# got: '65280'
# expected: '256'
t/10general.............ok 13/33# Looks like you failed 1 test of 33.
t/10general.............dubious
The line in question is:
is system("false"), 1<<8, 'system false should return 256';
The cause of the problem is that the Solaris version of /usr/bin/false
gives an exit code of 255, not 1.
Here is a patch which fixes this:
