I'm getting errors building perl from the SVN head.  Should I just move
the offending line from fork() to vfork() and be done with it or is this
something bigger?  My goal is to use perl for some simple CGI web pages

I recommend you check out Haserl (haserl.sourceforge.net). I have not used
it on an MMU-less system, but I think you'll find it's much lighter weight
than Perl or Python.

haserl in trunk also bombs on fork().  However, there are only two
occurrences of fork() in the code.  I'll change them to vfork() and
give it a go.

It's like this patch was unapplied:

http://mailman.uclinux.org/pipermail/uclinux-dev/2008-May/046569.html

When I send messages like that it means applied to the sources that
are released at http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/.

And that patch is in the sources packages there (after May/2008).

Note that there is no git/svn/cvs access to these.


None of these changes/patches are in the SVN/GIT repository.

http://blackfin.uclinux.org/git/?p=readonly-mirrors/uclinux-dist.git;a=tree;f=user/haserl/haserl-0.9.25;h=63cf9039fbf978ab733fd7f407e705514a236eab;hb=HEAD

All other archives, like this one, and the many others around the internet,
are maintained by others. I really have no idea who, or even if, they track
the uClinux-dist releases or are even maintained at all.

Regards
Greg
