5 | # These hints are intended for NeXT 3.2. |

7 | # From about perl5.002beta1h perl became unstable on the |
8 | # NeXT. Intermittent coredumps were frequent on 3.2 OS. There were |
9 | # reports, that the developer version of 3.3 didn't have problems, so it |
10 | # seemed pretty obvious that we had to work around an malloc bug in 3.2. |
11 | # This hints file reflects a patch to perl5.002_01 that introduces a |
12 | # home made sbrk routine (remember, NeXT's sbrk _never_ worked). This |
13 | # sbrk makes it possible to run perl with its own malloc. Thanks to |
14 | # Ilya who showed me the way to his sbrk for OS/2!! |

35 | # above comment should stay here, but is not longer of importance # |
36 | # with -DUSE_PERL_SBRK and -DHIDEMYMALLOC we can now say 'yes' to # |
37 | # usemymalloc. We call this hintsfile next_3_2.sh, so folks with 3.3 # |
38 | # can decide what they prefer. Actually folks with 3.3 "user" version# |
39 | # will also need this hintsfile, but how can I discern which 3.3 it # |
40 | # is? # |
