Package: eperl
Version: 2.2.14-15.1+b1
Severity: serious
Justification: renders package unusable on hppa


eperl hangs on hppa, even for this trivial case:

    eperl /dev/null
    
which should return immediatly in the normal case.  Running through strace,
the program loops forever in this way:

[...]
readlink("/proc/self/exe", "/usr/bin/eperl"..., 4095) = 14
stat64("/usr/local/lib/site_perl/5.10.0/hppa-linux-gnu-thread-multi",
0xfb475c08) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/usr/local/lib/site_perl/5.10.0", 0xfb475c08) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
stat64("/usr/local/lib/site_perl/hppa-linux-gnu-thread-multi", 0xfb475c08) =
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
sched_yield()                           = 0
sched_yield()                           = 0
sched_yield()                           = 0
sched_yield()                           = 0
sched_yield()                           = 0
[...]

This is, BTW, why the qhull package FTBFS on hppa [1].
