  I just d/l & compiled perl 5.005.03 from perl,com, and during compilation
got these warnings...

  CCCMD = cc -DPERL_CORE -c -std -fprm d -ieee -D_INTRINSICS -I/usr/local/include -DLANGUAGE_C -O4
cc​: Warning​: util.c, line 2856​: In this statement, floating-point overflow occurs in evaluating the expression "1.8e308". (floatoverfl)
return HUGE_VAL;

cc​: Warning​: POSIX.xs, line 1315​: In this statement, floating-point overflow occurs in evaluating the expression "1.8e308". (floatoverfl)
  return HUGE_VAL;

I'm running Digital UNIX 4.0f on a couple of brand-new DS20's, with the
DEC C compiler. Int's btw, are 4 bytes, and long's are 8.
