If you are using as compiler GCC-2.95.x rev(DG/UX)
an easy solution for configuring perl in your DG/UX
machine is to run the command:
-./Configure -Dusethreads -Duse5005threads -des
+./Configure -Dusethreads -Duseithreads -Dusedevel -des
This will automatically accept all the defaults and
in particular /usr/local/ as installation directory.
Note that GCC-2.95.x rev(DG/UX) knows the switch
--pthread whcih allows it to link correctly DG/UX's
+-pthread which allows it to link correctly DG/UX's
-lthread library.

+If you want to change the installation directory or
have a standard DG/UX with C compiler GCC-2.7.2.x
then you have no choice than to do an interactive
build by issuing the command:
-./Configure -Dusethreads -Duse5005threads
+./Configure -Dusethreads -Duseithreads
In particular with GCC-2.7.2.x accept all the defaults
and *watch* out for the message:
switch. So your build will fail if you choose the defaults.
After configuration is done correctly give "make" to compile.
