NAME
       perlhaiku - Perl version 5.10+ on Haiku
DESCRIPTION
       This file contains instructions how to build Perl for Haiku and lists
       known problems.
BUILD AND INSTALL
       The build procedure is completely standard:
         ./Configure -de
         make
         make install
       Make perl executable and create a symlink for libperl:
         chmod a+x /boot/common/bin/perl
         cd /boot/common/lib; ln -s perl5/5.16.3/BePC-haiku/CORE/libperl.so .
       Replace 5.16.3 with your respective version of Perl.
KNOWN PROBLEMS
       The following problems are encountered with Haiku revision 28311:
       o   Perl cannot be compiled with threading support ATM.
       o   The ext/Socket/t/socketpair.t test fails. More precisely: the
           subtests using datagram sockets fail. Unix datagram sockets aren't
           implemented in Haiku yet.
       o   A subtest of the ext/Sys/Syslog/t/syslog.t test fails. This is due
           to Haiku not implementing "/dev/log" support yet.
       o   The tests lib/Net/Ping/t/450_service.t and
           lib/Net/Ping/t/510_ping_udp.t fail. This is due to bugs in Haiku's
           network stack implementation.
CONTACT
       For Haiku specific problems contact the HaikuPorts developers:
       http://ports.haiku-files.org/ <http://ports.haiku-files.org/>;
       The initial Haiku port was done by Ingo Weinhold
       <ingo_weinhold AT gmx.de>.
