+64-bit builds
Subtest #15 of lib/b.t may fail under 64-bit builds on platforms such
as HP-UX PA64 and Linux IA64. The issue is still being investigated.
Note that 64-bit support is still experimental.

+Failure of Thread tests
The subtests 19 and 20 of lib/thr5005.t test are known to fail due to
fundamental problems in the 5.005 threading implementation. These are
not new failures--Perl 5.005_0x has the same bugs, but didn't have these
tests. (Note that support for 5.005-style threading remains experimental.)

+NEXTSTEP 3.3 POSIX test failure
In NEXTSTEP 3.3p2 the implementation of the strftime(3) in the
operating system libraries is buggy: the %j format numbers the days of
a month starting from zero, which, while being logical to programmers,
will cause the subtests 19 to 27 of the lib/posix test may fail.

If compiled with gcc 2.95 the lib/sdbm test will fail (dump core).
