BSDi 2.1 BUG

["Jim D." <jd...@downcity.net>]

This may relate to the BSDI note in the INSTALL file, but I'm getting a
fcntl.pm problem, or at least it appears this way. Everything else seems to
work, but when I add "use Fcntl;" I get this...

[Tue Jun 13 18:31:40 2000] [error] Can't load
'/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-bsdos/auto/Fcntl/Fcntl.o' for module Fcntl:
can't resolve undefined symbols: Inappropriate file type or format at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-bsdos/XSLoader.pm line 73.
 at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-bsdos/Fcntl.pm line 220
Compilation failed in require at /home2/site/perl/count line 4.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home2/site/perl/count line 4.

Everything else seems to run great, besides any scripts using Fcntl... all
have worked under other OSs.

Has there been a patch or can anyone point me in the right direction to get
it done myself?

Thanks,

BSDI 2.1 does not have dynamic loading of modules.  How did you
convince perl to actually build it that way?
