I just ran @configure with perl@11238 and found these "anomolous" dollar
signs in config.h:
#define DB_VERSION_MAJOR_CFG $db_version_major /**/
#define DB_VERSION_MINOR_CFG $db_version_minor /**/
#define DB_VERSION_PATCH_CFG $db_version_patch /**/
#define PERL_TARGETARCH "$targetarch" /**/
Here were some of the bare #defines I noted (not accounting for #ifdef
exclusions or course):
$ perl -ne "print if /^\s*#\s*define\s+\w+\s*$/" config.h
#define DEBUGGING
#define VMS_DO_SOCKETS
#define DECCRTL_SOCKETS
#define HAS_SETENV
#define SECURE_INTERNAL_GETENV
#define HAS_ENVGETENV
#define PERL_EXTERNAL_GLOB
#define _config_h_
#define const
#define volatile
# define _GNU_SOURCE
#define VAL_O_NONBLOCK
#define VAL_EAGAIN
#define RD_NODATA
#define NV_PRESERVES_UV
#define STDIO_STREAM_ARRAY
It's the VAL_O_NONBLOCK and VAL_EAGAIN that are causing trouble here is it
not?
