@@ -619,10 +619,60 @@ tests, where for example when the test expects "0" you get "0"
 which should after a little squinting look very odd indeed.
 Another example is earlier in F<t/run/fresh_perl> where chr(0xff) is
 expected but the test fails because the result is chr(0xff).  Exactly.

 This is the "make test" result from the said combination:
 
   Failed 27 test scripts out of 745, 96.38% okay.
 
+Running the C<harness> is painful because of the many failing
+Unicode-related tests will output megabytes of failure messages,

+The alarm() test failure is caused by system() apparently blocking
+alarm().  That is probably a libc bug, and given that SunOS 4.x
+has been end-of-lifed years ago, don't hold your breath for a fix.
+In addition to that, don't try anything Unicodey, and you should be fine.
