Depends what you mean by "information"? A grep on the sources turns up these references:

P:\src\perl-5.8.5>findstr PERL_SYS_INIT *.? Changes5.8: Log: Factor the PERL_SYS_INIT() code, from Hugo van + der Sanden. Changes5.8: Log: In UTS do signal(SIGFPE, SIG_IGN) in PERL_SYS_ +INIT().

But presumable you (could?) have done that yourself.

If you need more info than you can glean from reading your platform specific header file (dosish.h|unixish.h), then you'll probably need to ask (specific!) questions over on p5p.


Examine what is said, not who speaks.
Silence betokens consent.
Love the truth but pardon error.
