The following composite patch builds and passes parrot tests.
However the pmc2cutil tests are not passing. Could you post a new
diff
that includes passing pmc2cutil tests?
Can you send me some output with test failures? They've passed
repeatedly on my machine.
Please note that the pmc2cutil tests should only be run at a point
*after* you've called perl Configure.pl but *before* you've called
'make'. That's because if you've already run 'make', you've created
some of the files whose creatability is the thing to be tested by the
pmc2cutil/*.t tests. If those files already exist on your disk,
rather than give you false positives, some of the tests are
deliberately designed to fail.
I was getting burned by false positives for three weeks before I
realized this. But before I conclude that this is your problem, I'll
need to see some output. Thank you very much.
