between versions and sub-versions of Perl, not necessarily a complete
list of each modification. If you'd like more detailed information,
please consult the comments in the patches on which the relevant
release of Perl is based. (Patches can be found on any CPAN
site, in the .../src/5.0 directory for full version releases,
or in the .../src/5/0/unsupported directory for sub-version
releases.)

Subject: Maint 5 and _54 with threading on HP-UX 11.00

Message-Id: <199902032057.MAA10218@xfiles.intercon.hp.com>
NOTE from jhi: the hpux hints could still be more robust by
disabling gdbm when necessary.
Currently if there's a libgdbm.sl (gdbm 1.7.3) which is pre-11,
linking -lgdbm -lpthread creates an executable that instantly
core dumps on a pthreads internal panic:
./gdpt
Pthread internal error: message: __libc_reinit() failed, file: ../pthreads/pthread.c, line: 1096
Return Pointer is 0xc082bf33
17639 quit (core dumped) ./gdpt
You don't have to *use* either gdbm or pthreads in the executable,
just linking them together is enough. Workaround is to recompile
the GDBM under HP-UX 11, that makes the problem to go away.
