I am an user of Perl for one year, and I've just installed BSD 386 1.0 on my
PC compatible. 

I tried to install Perl 4.035, but it seems there is a few bugs in the script:
a quote is missing in a sed expression in the extracted file makedepend ; after
patching this bug, I tried again, but I obtained strange errors about yacc files,
and Perl refused to be installed.

Did anyone already port Perl on this system ? Or are the binaries downloadable ? 

Thanks for all.
