I am trying to install perl 5.61 on an Alpha cluster running Open VMS 7.3
using Compaq C V6.2-003 and MMS V3.4-3 and not having much luck. Any help
would be appreciated.

$ @configure "-des"
..
..
..
The perl_setup.com file is now being written...
    $1$DGA2:[PERL_INSTALL.PERL561]PERL_SETUP.COM;7

In order to build perl5 you must now issue the command:

 MMS
$ mms
..
..
..
>MCR $1$dga2:[perl_install.perl561]miniperl.exe "-I[--.lib]" "-I[--.lib]"
[--.lib.ExtUtils]xsubpp -noprototypes -typemap [--.lib.ExtUtils]typemap
-typemap typemap POSIX.xs >POSIX.C
CC/DECC
/Include=[]/Standard=Relaxed_ANSI/Prefix=All/Obj=.obj/NoList/NOANSI_ALIAS/De
fine=("VERSION=""1.03""","XS_VERSION=""1.03""")/Include=([--])/Optimize
POSIX.c

    char *  buffer = sv_grow( sv_buffer, nbytes+1 );
                          .............................................^
%CC-W-UNINIT1, The scalar variable "nbytes" is fetched but not initialized.
And there may be other such fetches of this variable that have not been
reported in this compilation.
at line number 4647 in file
$1$DGA2:[PERL_INSTALL.PERL561.EXT.POSIX]POSIX.C;1
%MMS-F-ABORT, For target POSIX.OBJ, CLI returned abort status: %X10B91260.
%MMS-F-ABORT, For target DYNEXT, CLI returned abort status: %X10EE8034.

Thanks,
