Package: perl Version: 5.8.8-7 Testing with gcc-4.2, I got the same failure building perl as reported with gcc-snapshot:
/usr/bin/make perl test make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/buildd/perl-5.8.8' make[1]: *** No rule to make target `<command-line>', needed by `perlmain.o'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/buildd/perl-5.8.8' make: *** [perl.static] Error 2 The patch given in the bug report also works with gcc-4.2. -- Daniel Schepler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
