RE: Unicos 10.0.0.6 port of perl

As luck would have it I am working on an SV1 today
with unicos 10.0.0.6, craytools 3.4.0.0.1, craylibs 3.4.0.0.3.
and was able to duplicate the problems with perl 5.6.0
on a sv1 as well as a t90 with unicos 10.0.0.hq (almost 8) 
No lose of any functionality with any of our perl 
programs so far though.  I could look into the test failures
at the end of the week ....
