(or rsync -avz --delete ftp.linux.activestate.com::perl-5.8.x perl-5.8.x) Retractions: all PASTHRU twiddling was removed as per request of Schwern, the #20479 (localization of readonly scalars warning), the pad.c changes instigated by broken INT32_MIN in Cygwin 1.5. I'm hoping the Cygwin sigaction.t failure is now gone. The daily build reports http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.daily-build.reports is looking quite bad again. I think we need to clean it up. Therefore, could everybody who has any FAILs please investigate the failures, reproduce, summarise, analyse, and send the summary of your smoke failures to p5p. I know that there are some "known failures without resolution" like Jos' BSD/OS failing all but one combination, some failures of which I or someone else had tried to debug and resolve already, but please summarise anyway. Please do try to analyse the failures a bit, like e.g. lib/Benchmark.t failures may be due to load/timing, network failures due to unusual networking configs, etc. Changes since the last: ____________________________________________________________________________ [ 20581] By: jhi on 2003/08/09 08:45:18 Log: Update on the cygwin situation. (I'm wishfully thinking that the sigaction.t failure was fixed by (blead) #20565.)
