10# Contact dfavor@corridor.com for any of the following:
11#
12# - AIX 43x and above support
13# - gcc + threads support
14# - socks support
15#
16# Apr 99 changes:
17#
18# - use nm in AIX 43x and above
19# - gcc + threads now builds
29209bc5 20# [(added support for socks) Jul 99 SOCKS support rewritten]
bbc711f9 21#
22# Notes:
23#
24# - shared libperl support is tricky. if ever libperl.a ends up
25# in /usr/local/lib/* it can override any subsequent builds of
26# that same perl release. to make sure you know where the shared
27# libperl.a is coming from do a 'dump -Hv perl' and check all the
28# library search paths in the loader header.
29#
30# it would be nice to warn the user if a libperl.a exists that is
31# going to override the current build, but that would be complex.
32#
33# better yet, a solid fix for this situation should be developed.
