Alternatively, you can enable CPP symbol pollution wholesale by
building perl itself with:
it might well be a symptom of the gcc "varargs problem". See the
previous L<"varargs"> item.
-=item Solaris and SunOS dynamic loading
-
-If you have problems with dynamic loading using gcc on SunOS or
-Solaris, and you are using GNU as and GNU ld, you may need to add
--B/bin/ (for SunOS) or -B/usr/ccs/bin/ (for Solaris) to your
-$ccflags, $ldflags, and $lddlflags so that the system's versions of as
-and ld are used. Note that the trailing '/' is required.
-Alternatively, you can use the GCC_EXEC_PREFIX
-environment variable to ensure that Sun's as and ld are used. Consult
-your gcc documentation for further information on the -B option and
-the GCC_EXEC_PREFIX variable.
-
-One convenient way to ensure you are not using GNU as and ld is to
-invoke Configure with
-
- sh Configure -Dcc='gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/'
-
-for Solaris systems. For a SunOS system, you must use -B/bin/
-instead.
-
-Alternatively, recent versions of GNU ld reportedly work if you
-include C<-Wl,-export-dynamic> in the ccdlflags variable in
-config.sh.
-
-=item ld.so.1: ./perl: fatal: relocation error:
-
-If you get this message on SunOS or Solaris, and you're using gcc,
-it's probably the GNU as or GNU ld problem in the previous item
-L<"Solaris and SunOS dynamic loading">.
-
=item LD_LIBRARY_PATH
If you run into dynamic loading problems, check your setting of
fine with LD_LIBRARY_PATH unset, though that may depend on details
of your local set-up.
-=item dlopen: stub interception failed
-
-The primary cause of the 'dlopen: stub interception failed' message is
-that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable includes a directory
-which is a symlink to /usr/lib (such as /lib).
-
-The reason this causes a problem is quite subtle. The file libdl.so.1.0
-actually *only* contains functions which generate 'stub interception
-failed' errors! The runtime linker intercepts links to
-"/usr/lib/libdl.so.1.0" and links in internal implementation of those
-functions instead. [Thanks to Tim Bunce for this explanation.]
-
=item nm extraction
If Configure seems to be having trouble finding library functions,
that any site is carrying a corrupted or incomplete source code
archive, please report it to the site's maintainer.
-This message can also be a symptom of using (say) a GNU tar compiled
-for SunOS4 on Solaris. When you run SunOS4 binaries on Solaris the
-run-time system magically alters pathnames matching m#lib/locale# - so
-when tar tries to create lib/locale.pm a differently-named file gets
-created instead.
-
-You may find the file under its assumed name and be able to rename it
-back. Or use Sun's tar to do the extract.
-
=item invalid token: ##
You are using a non-ANSI-compliant C compiler. See L<WARNING: This
version requires a compiler that supports ANSI C>.

-See L<THIS PACKAGE SEEMS TO BE INCOMPLETE>.

=item Miscellaneous
Some additional things that have been reported for either perl4 or perl5:
make install will install the following:
+ binaries
+
perl,
perl5.nnn where nnn is the current release number. This
will be a link to perl.
suidperl,
sperl5.nnn If you requested setuid emulation.
a2p awk-to-perl translator
+
+ scripts
+
cppstdin This is used by perl -P, if your cc -E can't
read from stdin.
c2ph, pstruct Scripts for handling C structures in header files.
pl2pm Convert Perl 4 .pl files to Perl 5 .pm modules
pod2html, Converters from perl's pod documentation format
pod2latex, to other useful formats.

+Perl's *.h header files and the libperl library are also installed
under $archlib so that any user may later build new modules, run the
optional Perl compiler, or embed the perl interpreter into another
program even if the Perl source is no longer available.

=head1 Coexistence with earlier versions of perl5
In general, you can usually safely upgrade from one version of Perl (e.g.
