Oh wise ones,

I am currently running perl 5.8.8 on a server and I'm trying to install 5.14.

I configured it to usethreads and use64bitint and otherwise the defaults it suggested.

make ran without problems, but make test is failing, on

  ../cpan/IPC-SysV/t/ipcsysv.t
  ../cpan/IPC-SysV/t/shm.t

thus:

# ./perl harness ../cpan/IPC-SysV/t/shm.t ../cpan/IPC-SysV/t/ipcsysv.t
../cpan/IPC-SysV/t/shm.t ...... IPC::SharedMem->new failed: Invalid ar
+gument at t/shm.t line 54.
../cpan/IPC-SysV/t/shm.t ...... Dubious, test returned 22 (wstat 5632,
+ 0x1600)
No subtests run
../cpan/IPC-SysV/t/ipcsysv.t .. 1/38 shmget failed: Invalid argument a
+t t/ipcsysv.t line 100.
# Looks like you planned 38 tests but ran 17.
# Looks like your test exited with 22 just after 17.
../cpan/IPC-SysV/t/ipcsysv.t .. Dubious, test returned 22 (wstat 5632,
+ 0x1600)
Failed 21/38 subtests

Both of these tests are reporting 'Invalid argument', but when I look at the source, I can't see anything that looks invlaid. I'm not really sure how to proceed... any pointers?
