Using the contributed Zen 2.1 binaries I was able to build the following

I'm stuck building perl (seems to be a major sticking point with the
fringe OS's as I'm also stuck on HPUX for Itanium), getting the
neverending message:
(Feeding myself to /bin/sh to avoid Digital UNIX' ksh.)
Any idea how to avoid this???
Seems that is is exec'ing itself again and again with the /bin/sh as
it thinks it is running under /bin/ksh but on your platform /bin/sh
is actually already KSH. The Perl "Configure" script has an explicit
code for Tru64/OSF1 in line 128ff, including some strange $BIN_SH
things.
I don't know why this code doesn't work as expected on your Tru64
5.1, but as the code seems to be for a rather old OSF1 version (and
Tru64 5.1 should no longer have such a broken KSH) I would just try
to remove the whole lines 128-134 with a patch hunk and try again.
Or even more precise: patch the "if test X`/usr/bin/uname -s` = XOSF1;
then" to something like "if test X`/usr/bin/uname -s` = XOSF1 && test
"X`/usr/bin/uname -r`" = X5.1; then". But check the output of your
"/usr/bin/uname -r" first. If it works I can commit such a patch to the
"perl" package.

For a quick test I'm able to get past this recursion by symlinking
/bin/sh to OpenPKG's lib/bash. I'm now getting these errors (/usr/bin/cc
or gcc, with or without binutils installed):
