That's what we have a buildfarm for ;-) There's a failure on FBSD too by the look of it. I'll dig some more to see what I can find.

I see this when building HEAD on Fedora 10:

plperl.c: In function 'plperl_init_interp':
plperl.c:450: warning: null argument where non-null required (argument 3)

Seems like a good hint ...

                        
Yeah. I didn't get that. But the odd thing is that on 5.8 especially it shouldn't matter.

perl 5.8.8's perl.h has:

   #ifndef PERL_SYS_INIT3
   #  define PERL_SYS_INIT3(argvp,argcp,envp) PERL_SYS_INIT(argvp,argcp)
   #endif


and the only place it's defined elsewhere that I can see is for OS2 (for anyone still running it!). These two Unixware machines have 5.8.8. and the FBSD machine has 5.8.7. So surely it can't be that, unless I'm missing something badly.

The unixish.h file has this on 5.8:

   #  define PERL_SYS_INIT(c,v) MALLOC_CHECK_TAINT2(*c,*v)
   PERL_FPU_INIT MALLOC_INIT

I'm guessing the problem is actually somewhere in there.

I could construct a dummy environment to pass to perl to quiet that warning, or I could even clone the environment - I'm mildly reluctant to pass the real environment to this, as the perlembed man page blandly tells us that this macro might mangle what is passed to it (even though we know on 5.8 it doesn't).

cheers
