Perl ithreads

I have tried to compile Perl with support for multiple threads. However, the test suites PANIC. Has anyone managed to get ithreads working on QNX 6.3?

Try Perl 5.8.6 from QOpenCD ( mike.qnx.org.ru/qopencd/ ) it passed all the test suits.

Unfortunately, that version does not have ithreads enabled. I can compile Perl without ithreads and have it pass all tests. It is only the multiple thread support that seems to be broken.

Here is part of the output from /opt/bin/perl -V:

I’ve added a small PR to Landy, a man who ported that version of perl to QNX 6.3.0. I’ll let you know about his answer.
