Well my problem is kind of compilcated. I have a c program
that calls some perl function to allow my c program to access perl scripts. The c program was compiled with g++ 2.95.3 and it worked with 97r1.3 version of perl just fine but recently my department upgraded to perl 5.8.5. But the problem is the libperl.so (for 97r1.3)which is used by the c program originally was compiled using g++ 2.8.1 but this new one's (5.8.5 perl) libperl.so was compiled with g++ 3.3.3 so I'm getting sigmentation bus error or something like that which doesn't create a core file. At least I think this is the problem.

So I was wondering how can I solve this problem? I was thinking of migrating my c program to g++ 3.3.3 but it would take an immense amount of effort (it's very big). I thought of trying to compile my own 5.8.5 perl libperl.so using g++ 2.95.3 but I had a very big wall on that solution.

I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post, if it's not please direct me to the correct one.

Thanks for the help in advance.
