The main part of the patch is for perl 5.6.1 (which is pretty much "obsolete"), the perl 5.8.4 tree has less trouble in that area. > (ON doesn't use Subversion > directly, so it's somewhat perplexing in an ON-specific patch...) Some workspaces are based on Subversion (like the ksh93-integration work (and likely some of the follow-ups, too)). ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) [EMAIL PROTECTED] \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;) _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
