I usually build with MMK, but I tried a build of the latest 5.8.1
pre-release version and it died on the first extension it tried to
build:
Making attrs (dynamic)
Writing Descrip.MMS for attrs
cp attrs.pm [--.lib]attrs.pm
MCR [--]miniperl.exe "-I[--.lib]" "-I[--.lib]" -e "use ExtUtils::Mksymlists;" -e
"Mksymlists('NAME' => 'attrs', 'DL_FUNCS' => { }
, 'DL_VARS' => [], 'FUNCLIST' => [])"
MCR [--]miniperl.exe -e "print
""[--.lib.auto.attrs]attrs.olb/Include=attrs\n[--.lib.auto.attrs]attrs.olb/Library\n"";"
>>ATTRS.OPT
MCR [--]miniperl.exe -e "print qq{[--]PerlShr.exe/Share\n}" >>ATTRS.OPT
Copy/NoConfirm ATTRS.OPT [--.LIB.AUTO.ATTRS]ATTRS.OPT
%COPY-S-COPIED, D0:[CRAIG.perl-5_8.ext.attrs]attrs.opt;1 copied to
D0:[CRAIG.perl-5_8.LIB.AUTO.ATTRS]ATTRS.OPT;1 (1 block)
%MMS-F-GWKNOACTS, Actions to update ATTRS.C are unknown.
MMK does not have this problem. At first glance I don't see any
substantive recent changes to the .xs.c rule or the dependencies for
the .c file. I try to track this down but thought I'd see if anyone
else had encountered this and/or can reproduce it. Here's my MMS
version:
