need to compile a 64-bit perl 5.005_03 on HP-UX 11.11, PA-RISC 2.0. Seems that
perl versions following 5.005_03 have severe performance problems with certain
types of regular expressions. (See <a
href="http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=24936"
title="http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=24936">http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=24936</a>)
My company has tripped upon this issue and most of our scripts run at least twice
as long. I have a 32-bit version of 5.005_03, but need a 64-bit version because
the scripts are also hitting memory limits. I followed the README.hpux file
with no luck and even tried using the compile options from the 64-bit 5.8.3
provided by HP (which in turn is provided by ActiveState). Things go along just
fine for a while during the make until I get the following error:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
