I have just managed to build perl5.003 (at least, the executables are =
there) but I'm stuck with "make install" because after copying the .exes =
to their directory the "installperl" script dies at some arbitrary point =
with the message
fork_helper: child died before initialization with win32 error 128
Error 128 has the message
There are no child processes to wait for.
Is this a timing problem in cygwin.dll (the install script spits out a =
lot of shells)? Any workarounds?
Regards
Karl

Subject: What libs are these functions in?
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hello!=20
I'm attempting to port the Tiny Fugue MU* client using gnu-win32 and =
after=20
an hour or so of messing with the configure script have hit a few brick =
walls.
The script says it's unable to find a number of functions and that I =
should=20
worry about it, but I tend to think that I need these functions... If=20
anyone could tell me what library I should include to get these =
functions,=20
I'd be very grateful!
connect
gethostbyname
h_errno
hsterror
srandom
strcmpi
stricmp
Also, this program would prefer to use the termcap libraries. Are these =
ported completely anywhere or should I just tell the thing to use =
hardcoded=20
ANSI or VT100?
Finally, as the program is compiling tty.c which is responible for the =
low=20
level screen calls, it bombs on TCSETAF being undefined. =20
The code looks like:
#ifdef USE_TERMIO /* with a few macros, this looks just like=20
USE_TERMIOS */
# ifdef hpux /* hpux's termio is=20
different. */
# undef USE_TERMIO
# define USE_HPUX_TERMIO
# include <<sys/ioctl.h>
# include <<termio.h>
# include <<bsdtty.h>
# else
# define USE_TERMIOS
# include <<termio.h>
# endif
# define tty_struct struct termio
# define insetattr(buf) (ioctl(0, TCSETAF, (buf)))
# define ingetattr(buf) (ioctl(0, TCGETA, (buf)))
# define insetattr_error "TCSETAF ioctl"
# define ingetattr_error "TCGETA ioctl"
#endif
I'm relatively certain that these are some part of the tty specific=20
routines. The last time I tried this (back on b14) I just set them as=20
SOMETHING. It didn't work very well... Does anyone know what .h file =
would=20
have this in it or what it should be defined as?
Thank you very much!
