I am trying to install the above module on an Ultra60/Solaris 8 box with Perl 5.8.6 and GCC 3.4.2

The problem is with Math::Pari which is proving a real handful to get installed.

I have the latest stable pari libs but if I try to build I get an as conflict on overflow in asm clobber list error.

If I try to build Math::Pari without prebuilding pari I get the same error on hiremainder.

It seems from Google that I am not the only one with this issue but so far can't find a solution.

Perl was build from source on this machine with gcc 3+, can't remember exactly which but likely to be gcc 3.3. I've tried using gcc 3.3 with same results so upgraded to 3.4 as that was reported to work.

On another box (1405t) I am building pari with gcc3.2 but get "multiply-defined" errors on _dso_handle, _init, _start, _fini, _lib_version.

Math::Pari builds but all tests fail on "relocation error".

O yes, I'm trying for 32bit versions of everything.
