The good news is that z/OS now passes all tests run on blead! I'll post
some more details on what this means and future plans tomorrow (my time).
There is one test that is skipped in this blead testing because I didn't
see how to fix it, and no one stepped forward to help at the time. I'm
now thinking it might be fairly easy to get it to work, and maybe since
we're now so close, someone will look at it.
The test involves trying to compile on the platform. It is
dist/ExtUtils-CBuilder/t/02-link.t
The messages below the ===== line are output when the test runs. The
ones before the first ok are warnings and appear in other tests that
pass, so that's not the problem here, though it would be better to not
have them show up. But I think the main errors are these two things:
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL @@ROND UNRESOLVED.
IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL CEEROOTD UNRESOLVED
I have no idea where these are coming from, but I bet a z/OS person might.
