I've been building on SIMH as well and fixed quite a few VAX build issues. Recent changes to vms.c: http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse/l/vms/vms.c and to configure.com: http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse/l/configure.com may be of interest. In particular, I think 28448 is what you're likely to need for the sig_num problem. The problem here is that the fixes go into bleadperl and then gradually get integrated into what will be 5.8.9, so with 5.8.8 there may be an uphill battle. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
