5 # MachTen does not support dynamic loading. If you wish to, you
6 # can fetch, compile, and install the dld package.
7 # This ought to work with the ext/DynaLoader/dl_dld.xs in the
8 # perl5 package. Have fun!
9 # Some possible locations for dld:
10 # ftp-swiss.ai.mit.edu:pub/scm/dld-3.2.7.tar.gz
11 # prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/jacal/dld-3.2.7.tar.gz
12 # ftp.cs.indiana.edu:/pub/scheme-repository/imp/SCM-support/dld-3.2.7.tar.gz
13 # tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/sources/libs/dld-3.2.7.tar.gz
15 # Original version was for MachTen 2.1.1.

25 # There seem to be some hard-to-diagnose problems under MachTen's
26 # malloc, so we'll use Perl's. If you have problems which Perl's
27 # malloc's diagnostics can't help you with, you may wish to use
28 # MachTen's malloc after all.

34 # you do, please fix this hints file!) But since mine didn't come
35 # with locales working out of the box, I'll assume that's the case

72 During Configure, you may get two "WHOA THERE" messages, for $d_setlocale
73 and $i_db being 'undef'. You may keep the undef value.
