# The two flags "-fpic -DPIC" are used to indicate a
# will-be-shared object.  Configure will guess the -fpic, (and the
# -DPIC is not used by perl proper) but the full define is included to 
# be consistent with the FreeBSD general shared libs building process.
#
# setreuid and friends are inherently broken in all versions of FreeBSD
# before 2.1-current (before approx date 4/15/95). It is fixed in 2.0.5

Some users have reported that Configure halts when testing for
the O_NONBLOCK symbol with a syntax error.  This is apparently a
sh error.  Rerunning Configure with ksh apparently fixes the
problem.  Try
	ksh Configure [your options]

I did not know that FreeBSD $osvers supports POSIX threads.

Feel free to tell perlbug@perl.org otherwise.

POSIX threads are not supported well by FreeBSD $osvers.

Please consider upgrading to at least FreeBSD 2.2.8,
or preferably to the most recent -RELEASE or -STABLE
version (see http://www.freebsd.org/releases/).

(While 2.2.7 does have pthreads, it has some problems
 with the combination of threads and pipes and therefore
 many Perl tests will either hang or fail.)

POSIX threads should be supported by FreeBSD $osvers --
but your system is missing the shared libc_r.
(/sbin/ldconfig -r doesn't find any).

Consider using the latest STABLE release.
