I saw the same thing, but got a successful build anyway after a -des
configure. The test suite hung on openpid.t, as usual. After
hacking that test to lie about its failure, I still get the following
failures further on in the test suite:
[.lib]filefind..........FAILED on test 18
[.lib]filespec..........FAILED on test 1
[.lib]vmsfspec..........FAILED on test 62
[.op]fh.................FAILED on test 5
[.op]taint..............FAILED on test 10
[.pragma]warnings.......FAILED on test 151
but at least it completed the suite, giving us a bottom line of
Failed 6/221 tests, 91.40% okay.
This was with DEC C V5.2-003 on OpenVMS Alpha V7.1.
lib/filefind when run individually didn't say anything immediately informative (at
least to me).
The lib/filespec test in detail looks like:
[.LIB]FILESPEC..........Prototype mismatch: sub File::Spec::VMS::unixify vs ($) at
../lib/File/Spec/VMS.pm line 9
Prototype mismatch: sub File::Spec::VMS::vmspath vs ($) at ../lib/File/Spec/VMS.pm
line 9
1..246
Can't make list assignment to %ENV on this system at [.lib]filespec.t line 340.
%SYSTEM-F-ABORT, abort
The lib/vmsfspec test is complaining about:
not ok 62 : vmsify('//some/where//over/../the.rainbow') expected
|some:[where]the.rainbow|, got |some:[where.over.-]the.rainbow|
The op/fh test fails with this followed by a register dump:
[.OP]FH.................1..5
ok 1
ok 2
ok 3
ok 4
%SYSTEM-F-ACCVIO, access violation, reason mask=00, virtual address=000000000000000C,
PC=00000000000A9938, PS=0000001B
and on that cheery note I'm going to take the rest of the evening off :-).
