I was actually able to do the make in 100 Mb. I also temporarily mounted a 2 Gb HFS at /tmp after I ran out of space in the TFS. I guess I could have increased the region on the OMVS proc instead.
On the make test I did get the EDC5129I error, even after I put in the symbolic link as recommended in the thread on the subject. perl itself seems to be working, however. Thanks for your help.

Thanks very much. ! !Richard Heritage !Johns Hopkins University We usually built with a 2G region - but that was in a software production environment with lots of C++ compilation that soaked up more memory than the linking of bits of perl.
