Re: Re: ActivePerl 5.8 Beta 1: yea or nay?

Jan Dubois from ActiveState said on the AS list that USE_LARGE_FILES is enabled. I can't find the e-mail in the archive but if you feel like looking for yourself there is more information over here.

printf "You are here %08x\n", unpack "L!", unpack "P4", pack
  "L!", B::svref_2object(sub{})->OUTSIDE;

The message I mentioned is here: http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2002-11/msg00305.html You're absolutely right: they compiled with "USE_LARGE_FILES" enabled, but that option was not default on 5.8.0 source distribution in time. as a result, that distribution that I compiled for me by myself, has that option switched off :( Thanks for helping me to clarify the situation!
