I am trying to compile perl 5.005_03 to work with Sybperl version 2-11. I
am on OSF1 alpha Digital Unix V4.0D rev (878).

Apparently, I need to remove the '-ldb' link for Berkely DB from the
Configure file before compiling Perl so that Sybperl will work properly
(from README file for Sybperl, there seems to be a conflict between -ldb and
-lsybdb).

I removed '-ldb' from the Makefile and makefile for perl5.005_03 and ran 'sh
./Configure -des'. However, it looks like these libraries still get included
with perl.

Do I need to remove '-ldbm' and '-lm' from these files? Are there other
files I need to remove this from?

Thanks for the help - Eman
