Dear Perl 3.0 patchlevel 4 experts:
No problem getting the patch files patched up to level 4.
It worked just fine on Sun3/260 OS 3.4.
It doesn't work on Sun3/260 OS 4.0.3.
I noted that when executing the Configure file on Sun3/260 OS 4.0.3. I get
the following messages:
====================== begin =====================
69 saxon% Configure
Beginning of configuration questions for perl kit.
First let's make sure your kit is complete. Checking...
Looks good...
Checking your sh to see if it knows about # comments...
Your sh handles # comments correctly.
Okay, let's see if #! works on this system...
It does.
Checking out how to guarantee sh startup...
Let's see if '#! /bin/sh' works...
stdout 1 <<<<<<<<<<<<< See this??? <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Yup, it does.
Checking echo to see how to suppress newlines...
...using -n.
Type carriage return to continue. Your cursor should be here-->
========================= end =========================
"stdout 1" does not even appear when executing Configure on Sun3/260 OS 3.4.
With "stdout 1" as the default, then I get errors such as:
============================== begin ========================
Run make depend now? [n] y
test -f perly.h || cp /dev/null perly.h
./makedepend
echo array.c cmd.c cons.c consarg.c doarg.c doio.c dolist.c dump.c eval.c form.c hash.c malloc.c perly.c regcomp.c regexec.c stab.c str.c toke.c util.c | tr ' ' '\012' >.clist

./perl.h: 123: syntax error (in preprocessor if)
./perl.h: 269: Illegal number stdout
./perl.h: 269: syntax error (in preprocessor if)
... and the list goes on ...
====================== end ===============================
Then I tried to replace default "stdout 1" with some values and I get:
===================== begin ======================
Run make depend now? [n] y
test -f perly.h || cp /dev/null perly.h
./makedepend
echo array.c cmd.c cons.c consarg.c doarg.c doio.c dolist.c dump.c eval.c form.c hash.c malloc.c perly.c regcomp.c regexec.c stab.c str.c toke.c util.c | tr ' ' '\012' >.clist

... and it goes on ....
===================== end ==========================
What have I done wrong here? I could use some hints, suggestions, etc!
Please either reply here or email directly to me.
Thanks in advance.
