I would try to recompile Socket then ... might as well go for 5.12.2 :)

    I found a similar problem report in perl's bug reports about Socket on Solaris: http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=2930 , do you know how to add -lresolv to appear in LIBS together with the other libraries? (Is there any way of doing that without recompiling whole perl?).
        This is funny (or not actually :( ) Now when I try to compile Socket I get the same error. Only the paths are different, I placed the Socket folder containing all the files and the folder t with all of its files , in my home directory. Should I place it somewhere else? (In /usr/local/perl perhaps? )
