According to Bennett Todd <bet@interactive.net>:
:Hat Linux 3.0.3 axp and i386, FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE, and BSDI 2.1. BSDI is
:the only one where it didn't work perfectly; on that one I had to hand-hold
:the configure so all the modules were statically loaded, because the dynamic
:loading code was roaching. But aside from that it's been a complete no-brainer

Anyone know if the perl build situation on BSDI 2.x is ever going to get any
better?  Anyone worked out the details on how to get dynamic loading to
work with perl who might share that info with the Perl Porting mailing list
so that it can happen automatically?
