System: HP-UX blatt B.10.01 A 9000/712 2010593751 two-user license
>Description:
HP-UX shared libraries must have "execute"
permission turned on.
also, for various historical reasons involving artifacts of
the HP-UX shared memory system, you get better performance if
they're owned by root and mode 555 instead of mode 755
Basically you wind up taking a whole bunch of unnecessary
sharing page faults unless library text can be mapped in a
"global" shared-readable, unwriteable chunk of address space...
>How-To-Repeat:
configure --enable-shared
(yes, I know that doesn't quite work, i've got
a few more fixes to mail in..)
make install; try to run any binary.
>Fix:
fix install modes for shared libraries on hp-ux to be 555
instead of 644.
