Thread: Foreign Toolchains - shell & perl




Foreign Toolchains - shell & perl

Hi
	I've installed the CodeSourcery ARM EABI toolset as a
foreign
toolchain.

I'm trying to build perl 5.8.4.

I have applied the Crocodile patch (for host miniperl)

The resulting perl binary fails basic test t/term - the
backtick operator
doesn't work.

One thing I have noticed is that the perl/Configure script
reports

"However, your read() returns '$status' on
EOF??"

The test run 

prompt > $run ./try >try.out 2>try.ret 4>try.err

gets an empty try.err.

Running the same code in  scratchbox arm 4.0.1 succeeds
(try.err contains 0)

Presumably there is a fault in my foreign toolchain
installation.

Does anyone have an opinion where I could look?

Regards

Peter Pearse
