Hi,
I recently discovered the problem with eval in 3.80 on Tru64 that others
have reported since it's release. I just tried 3.81 beta2 and am happy to
report that it appears to be fixed. Two things that I'll let you know about
which I don't have time to delve any deeper into (sorry, got an urgent
release in final stages):
1. I had to make a minor source change to get it to build (on Digital UNIX
V4.0E with native compiler). In main.c the following error was reported:
cc: Error: main.c, line 949: In this statement, "bsd_signal(...)" and
"(void ...)1" cannot be compared for equality or inequality. (noequality)
FATAL_SIG (SIGHUP);
--^
and the same error reported for the other similar lines. This was fixed
by casting the two things being compared to void* on line 942:
941: #define FATAL_SIG(sig)
\
942: if ((void*)bsd_signal (sig, fatal_error_signal) ==
(void*)SIG_IGN) \
943: bsd_signal (sig, SIG_IGN);
\
944: else
\
945: ADD_SIG (sig);
2. make check failed:

features/parallelism .................................... ok (3
