Re: [gentoo-user] Trouble compiling libperl-5.8.0 (~x86)

It was still giving errors without threads.  Having said that, I'll turn them off and give it another go.  Keep you posted.

I noticed you have threads in your USE flags. This, of course, is meant to 
compile Perl with threads, which all the errors are related to. The threading 
model changed in Perl 8.0 according to the INSTALL doc. I couldn't find a 
definate but I'm guessing that perhaps Perl 8.0 uses POSIX threading. i.e. to 
use it you would need recompile glibc with nptl in your use flags and run a 
2.6 kernel. Or check the INSTALL doc, as you could modify the ebuild to use 
the old (buggy) threading model if you so wished. I wouldn't recommend 
confirming what my guess first, though.
