 # QNX hints

-# These hints were written for QNX4, but are in the process
-# of being extended to encompass Neutrino as well.
+# Most of the hints in this file are for QNX4, which needed
+# more help. The QNX6 hints are located toward the bottom.

-# As of perl5.004_04, all tests pass under:
-#  QNX 4.23A
+# perl-5.7.2 passes all tests under QNX4.24G
 #  Watcom 10.6 with Beta/970211.wcc.update.tar.F
 #  socket3r.lib Nov21 1996.
-# perl-5.6.1 runs well on QNX4 with a few known test failures
-# perl-5.6.0 ships with QNX RTP (Neutrino) but the build is
-# not yet straightforward.
+# perl-5.7.2 fails 4 known tests under QNX6.1.0
 #
 # As with many unix ports, this one depends on a few "standard"
 # unix utilities which are not necessarily standard for QNX4.
