Please check that you have extended parse enabled in the process, and
please also check that you do not have DECC$EFS_CHARSET explicitly
disabled in the process. This is just guessing. I've never seen this
particular error so I don't know for sure what's going on, but
"XSUBPP^.." sure looks like something went wrong with handling
extended characters.
Thanks for the clue! I had not built perl since 5.18.2 and while the
command procedure that builds perl had the SET
PROCESS/PARSE_STYLE=EXTENDED/CASE_LOOKUP=BLIND as its first command, my
LOGIN.COM had changed and no longer had this command in it. So in some
cases MMK would create batch jobs which would not setup the EXTENDED
parse style needed for ODS-5 extended file naming. After I added this
command back to my LOGIN.COM, all was well and perl 5.22.0 built
successfully.
Thanks again for the quick response!
Regards,
Eric
