g'day

i'm having a horrible time trying to compile the perl compiler
alpha 3.

the system so far: sgi irix 5.3, perl5.004 (shared), gcc

the problem: byterun.c will not compile - it complains of
parse errors at the variable declarations of type
svindex, opindex, U16, U8, etc etc - everything in that
switch block, it seems.

i have exhausted my feeble C abilities in attempt to work
out what is going on - my latest guess is that bytecode.h
isn't properly defining the types 8P .

the plot thickens: when i use my old (nonshared) perl5.003 to build the 
makefile & acts as PERL, everything seems to compile OK.

has anyone got any suggestions on how i can make the compiler compile
with perl5.004? i'd like to make it work with my shared perl,
to keep the binary sizes down...

emailed copies of repsonses would be *greatly* appreciated!


regards

p

Before you go any further, dump whatever book that was and check out
	http://www.illuminatus.com/cookie.fcgi
to get correct cookie syntax.  I'm not sure what the book was trying to
tell
you, but if you don't have a path or date the cookie will not set.

jong out.

Administrivia:

The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc.  For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:

	subscribe perl-users
or:
	unsubscribe perl-users

to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.  

To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.misc (and this Digest), send your
article to perl-users@ruby.oce.orst.edu.

To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.

To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.

The Meta-FAQ, an article containing information about the FAQ, is
available by requesting "send perl-users meta-faq". The real FAQ, as it
appeared last in the newsgroup, can be retrieved with the request "send
perl-users FAQ". Due to their sizes, neither the Meta-FAQ nor the FAQ
are included in the digest.

The "mini-FAQ", which is an updated version of the Meta-FAQ, is
available by requesting "send perl-users mini-faq". It appears twice
weekly in the group, but is not distributed in the digest.

For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
