Hi. I am experiencing the following error when trying to
build perl on
HP-UX:

=======
mon:(/opt/perl-install/perl-5.8.8) 182> make
        `sh  cflags "optimize=''" gv.o`  gv.c
          CCCMD =  gcc -DPERL_CORE -c -fno-strict-aliasing
-pipe
-Wdeclaration-after-statement -I/usr/local/include
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64   -Wall
gv.c: In function 'Perl_amagic_call':
gv.c:1794: error: 'copy' undeclared (first use in this
function)
gv.c:1794: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported

gv.c:1794: error: for each function it appears in.)
gv.c:1794: error: expected ')' before '_amg'
gv.c:1794: error: too few arguments to function
'Perl_amagic_call'
*** Error exit code 1

I have checked newsgroups and have only found a few others
who had
experienced the same error, also on HP-UX, but haven't seen
any
solutions. Has anyone been able to determine what's causing
this error
in the compile? My configuration is below:

where does the info below come from? A perl you already
installed, or
from ./myconfig?

I ask, because on HP-UX PA-RISC, you cannot see on the
command line if
the gcc you are using is a 64bit or a 32bit compiler, and
64bit gcc-4.x
on HP-UX 11.11 is not reliable for building perl.

If this is a 64bit compiler, either fetch a precompiled perl
from my
site, or drop back to gcc-3.4.6, also available from my
site.
http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/downloads.html#hpux
1111

If this is a 32bit build, I don't know off-hand what is the
problem,
but there might be some conflict between the include files
that come
with the gcc distribution you use, and the development
depots that
are installed on your system

# swlist -l fileset | grep -- -INC | sort

will show you the -INC filesets that are installed. On my
11.11, the
most recent versions are

  CDEDevKit.CDE-INC           B.11.11.02  Header files
  InternetSrvcs.INETSVCS-INC  B.11.11     INETSVCS-INC
  PHCO_31923.C-INC            1.0         ProgSupport.C-INC
  PHKL_35011.C-INC            1.0         ProgSupport.C-INC
  PHNE_32825.INETSVCS-INC     1.0        
InternetSrvcs.INETSVCS-INC
  PHNE_34672.C-INC            1.0         ProgSupport.C-INC
  PHSS_33035.C-INC            1.0         B.11.11
