Makes sense. I built perl from source using as many defaults as I could when configuring. It seems like I can safely ignore this warning. Is that right? If so, does it make sense to suppress the message altogether? If not, are there any suggestions either for how to built perl differently or some other way to deal with this? Thanks much. Sorry for all the questions. I'm new to HP-UX and building perl with my own two hands. -DB _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
