[Speedycgi-users] SpeedyCGI on HPUX 10.20

[<rcp...@ya...>]

Dear all,

I am having a problem installing SpeedyCGI on HPUX
10.20. I don't have root access, so I am currently
trying to install it under my home directory, e.g.

perl Makefile.PL prefix=$HOME

which works fine. However, when I try to do a 'make',
the compilation continues until the object files are
about to be linked together. I get the following
error:

         ld -o speedy_backend speedy_backend_main.o
speedy_perl.o speedy_util.o speedy_sig.o
speedy_frontend.o speedy_backend.o speedy_file.o
speedy_slot.o speedy_poll.o speedy_ipc.o
speedy_group.o speedy_script.o speedy_opt.o
speedy_optdefs.o xsinit.o  -Wl,-E -Wl,-B,deferred  
-L/usr/local/lib
/opt/perl5/lib/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1/auto/DynaLoader/DynaLoader.a
-L/opt/perl5/lib/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1/CORE -lperl -lnsl_s
-lndbm -ldld -lm -lc -lndir -lcrypt -lsec
ld: Unrecognized argument: -Wl,-E
ld: Usage:  ld flags... files...
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.

It looks like the ld command does not like the -Wl,-E
option (and presumably the -Wl,-B,deferred option
too). The output of perl -V is:

Characteristics of this binary (from libperl): 
  Compile-time options: USE_LARGE_FILES
  Built under hpux
  Compiled at Apr 26 2000 16:12:40
  @INC:
    /opt/perl5/lib/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1
    /opt/perl5/lib/5.6.0
    /opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.6.0/PA-RISC1.1
    /opt/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.6.0
    /opt/perl5/lib/site_perl
    .

The documentation doesn't seem to suggest that it
won't compile on HPUX - though the OSs listed doesn't
include HPUX. 
Has something gone wrong when perl was installed that
somehow mangled the 'ccdlflags' setting of Config.pm?
Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Any clues how I might fix this?

Thanks,

Rajesh Parmar
