Irix 6.2 build problem - so_locations

Subject: Perl 5.004_03 - Irix 6.2 build problem - probably fixed

I have just built and install perl 5.004_03 on and SGI Power Challenge
under Irix 6.2 with the SGI Mongoose 7.1 compiler.

Problem

Did the standard "sh Configure -des; make".  Had a problem building
shared libraries, with compaints about file ./so_locations.

Solution:

  [ patch ]

Caveat:

You should get an SGI guru to check this.
