in reply to wide character problems

I have access to a NSK box and may be able to help if you give some more detail. Are you porting to OSS or Guardian?

If OSS, which C compiler are you using? c89 or gcc? Again, if OSS, were you able to get a clean build from the Perl 5.8.5 C sources with the normal:

sh Configure make make test make install

If not, what hacks have you already made to get an initial clean build?

    Hi, Iīm porting it into the OSS envirnoment and using c89. I have created a hints-file and I have done some minor hacks in config.sh after the initial Configure run. I have also created a extras.lst-file with a bunch of modules I want. And thatīs were I'm stuck. Steffe

      If you want useful help, you must give much more detail. When you ran "make test" did all the tests pass? Can you write a small test program with syswrite that clearly shows the problem you're having?

      I hope to get around to trying this myself in the next month or so. So I'd love to see the precise details of your hints file and config.sh hacks.
