During `make test` I saw a single "failure":
lib/ExtUtils.......................FAILED at test 28
Failed 1 test script out of 410, 99.76% okay.
But running that by hand I note the lib/ExtUtils.t only runs
27 tests like so:
% ./perl lib/ExtUtils.t
1..27
# perl=/tmp/ttt/perl/t/perl
# ext-457 being created...
ok 1
ok 2
# make = 'make'
ok 3
ok 4
# make = 'make test'
rm -f blib/arch/auto/ExtTest/ExtTest.sl

chmod 755 blib/arch/auto/ExtTest/ExtTest.sl
cp ExtTest.bs blib/arch/auto/ExtTest/ExtTest.bs
chmod 644 blib/arch/auto/ExtTest/ExtTest.bs

# make = 'make clean'
ok 26
ok 27
# ext-457 being removed...
Could it be the extra make test lines of
rm -f blib/arch/auto/ExtTest/ExtTest.sl
LD_RUN_PATH="" /usr/bin/ld -b +vnocompatwarnings -L/usr/local/libExtT
chmod 755 blib/arch/auto/ExtTest/ExtTest.sl
cp ExtTest.bs blib/arch/auto/ExtTest/ExtTest.bs
chmod 644 blib/arch/auto/ExtTest/ExtTest.bs
causing trouble? I built with the system supplied make utility, as
determined via this test:
% make --version
Make: Unknown flag argument -. Stop.
Exit 1
I did find that with the following change to lib/ExtUtils.t I could get
`make test` to report:
All tests successful.
u=3.01 s=2.11 cu=185.62 cs=51.86 scripts=410 tests=23370
Unfortunately this change has at least two drwabacks: 1) perhaps the s///
could help platforms other than hpux(?) 2) perhaps the s/// might
inadvertantly hide real trouble on hpux(?). Since I am getting tired and
blurry eyed with all these Perl builds I'll leave it in your hands to
decide if and/or how to apply such a change:
