#44 closed enhancement (fixed)

Thread support for Perl.

Reported by: William Owned by: Jim Gifford
Priority: minor Milestone: CLFS Standard 1.0.0
Component: BOOK Version: CLFS Standard 1.0.0
Keywords: Cc:

Description

Perl in the CLFS book does not support threading. But it seems most distros support it. Should we add it or not? 

./configure.gnu --prefix=/usr    -Dman1dir=/usr/share/man/man1 \
 -Dman3dir=/usr/share/man/man3 -Dpager="/bin/less -isR" \
 -Dusethreads

Making the change, I've been doing that for a while with no issues on Sparc, MIPS, and x86.
