I should have deleted a2p.c from the diff.  I saw that it was generated.
What's the best way to clean up a directory before running a diff?  make
realclean and make distclean do not seem to do the trick.


Onto the good news:
miniperl finally linked.

Now the bad news:
after miniperl is linked, the make goes into a fit due to a loop when this
is invoked:
/bin/env LIBPATH=/u/jgood/perlsrc/perl
\-3a3d7b8:/lib:/usr/lib:/shared/db2/db2a10/base/:/usr/lpp/Printsrv/lib:/usr/lpp/pe
rl/lib/5.8.7/os390\-thread\-multi/CORE:.  ./miniperl -Ilib make_patchnum.pl

It prints only this several hundred thousand times:
   Bareword found where operator expected at make_patchnum.pl line 0, at
   end of line
   (Missing operator before ?)

 And then this many times;
   Semicolon seems to be missing

- then an Out of memmory error.

Doing some Google()ing I saw that running with -Dte could provide some
insight as to what is going on, but I get the indication that I have to
recompile with -DDEBUGGING:
   miniperl -Dte 'print "Hello World"'
   Recompile perl with -DDEBUGGING to use -D switch (did you mean -d ?)

I ran Configure with -DDEBUGGING=BOTH and recompiled.   However, when I ran
miniperl, I did not get any diagnostics.

Is there any other sort of trace logic built into Perl?  If so, how do I
activate it.
