Hi, perl-5.8 seems to be severely broken in current. If I compile it with optimization enabled "make test" fails at t/op/pat, test 640. Only with no optimization at all this test succeeded. I tried the following options make CPUTYPE=i386 CFLAGS=-g => success make CPUTYPE=i386 CFLAGS=-O2 => failure make CPUTYPE=k6 => failure make (default values: -mcpu=pentiumpro -O) => failure
Also perl is painfully slow. Above test (t/op/pat) requires over 2 Minutes to complete (on my AMD K6-2/300). The same test on a Solaris/x86 Maschine (P II 450) only takes 7 seconds. gcc-3.2 on my Solaris(x86) also has no problems compiling and testing perl-5.8 Some other tests take even hours to complete. I wonder what is going on inside perl? Daniel To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
