I ran into problems during 'nmake test' while trying to build perl5.005.03
for windows (stable.zip downloaded from www.perl.com). The Code exists on
an aix machine (P​:) mounted on a NT v4.0 (build 1381​: service pack 4)
workstation with Transarc AFS client installed. I'm using cl.exe as the
compiler (MSVC++ v6.0). Any help or suggestions you can give me would be
appreciated. I have included output from 'nmake test', code surrounding the
error(?) in io_xs.t, and the values I had set for the Makefile.

lib/io_xs...........Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference at
lib/io_xs.t line 28.
dubious
  Test returned status 22 (wstat 5632, 0x1600)
DIED. FAILED tests 1-4
  Failed 4/4 tests, 0.00% okay

The neighborhood code for p500503\t\lib\io_xs.t -

use IO​::File;
use IO​::Seekable;

print "1..4\n";

$x = new_tmpfile IO​::File or print "not ";
print "ok 1\n";
print $x "ok 2\n"; <--- line 28
$x->seek(0,SEEK_SET);
print <$x>;

I sent this message earlier, but it didn't show up in my inbox. If the
mailer didn't eat it, I'm sorry for giving you double messages.
