When I build 5.10.0, I don't have this problem. In config.h, I have:
#define HAS_UNION_SEMUN /**/ Did you run Configure and does your config.h define HAS_UNION_SEMUN? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edward Moy Apple Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Mar 5, 2008, at 10:20 AM, snowcrash+perl wrote:
