It was possible to compile 64-bit perl under MacOS X 10.4 Tiger with G5. Whenever "sh Configure" will ask question about compiler one have to write:
"cc -arch ppc64" instead of "cc" adding "-arch ppc64" as a flag not always works. Best way is to put "hard-link" in OS so whenever "cc" or "gcc" is used "cc -arch ppc64" or "gcc -arch ppc64" will be used. Any errors I got during compiling were because part of modules were compiled with 64-bit mode and others not. Please send this mail to other mailing lists. Somehow Apple "Bioteam" (iNquiry) is not interested in 64-bit perl. Regards, -- Pawel Matykiewicz http://www.neuron.m4u.pl
