Perl5 builds on UNICOS (Crays), which is a Unix without dynamic linking. (As my housemate explained, if your program is taking up a sufficient proportion of the Cray's memory that dynamic linking would be useful, then you're doing something badly wrong) I think we're still failing some pack regression tests there. :-( There was this long debugging-over-e-mail session with someone at Boeing, but I don't think that we managed to get all the bugs nailed down.
