NAME

   perllinux - Perl version 5 on Linux systems

DESCRIPTION

   This document describes various features of Linux that will affect how
   Perl version 5 (hereafter just Perl) is compiled and/or runs.

   Experimental Support for Sun Studio Compilers for Linux OS
   Sun Microsystems has released a port of their Sun Studio compilers for
   Linux.  As of November 2005, only an alpha version has been released.
   Until a release of these compilers is made, support for compiling Perl
   with these compiler experimental.

   Also, some special instructions for building Perl with Sun Studio on
   Linux.  Following the normal "Configure", you have to run make as
   follows:

       LDLOADLIBS=-lc make

   "LDLOADLIBS" is an environment variable used by the linker to link
   modules "/ext" modules to glibc.  Currently, that environment variable
   is not getting populated by a combination of "Config" entries and
   "ExtUtil::MakeMaker".  While there may be a bug somewhere in Perl's
   configuration or "ExtUtil::MakeMaker" causing the problem, the most
   likely cause is an incomplete understanding of Sun Studio by this
   author.  Further investigation is needed to get this working better.
