Description
The current Perl 5.8 port does not support threading however the Apple supplied Perl 5.8 does. I think that the Macports install of Perl in this instance should match the features of the vendor supplied perl. Is it possible to update the compile flags so the 5.6 threading model (ithreads) is supported?
Here is the difference between Macports perl and the Apple supplied perl:
Foodmotron:~ tyler$ echo "use threads;" | /usr/bin/perl #expected result Foodmotron:~ tyler$ echo "use threads;" | /opt/local/bin/perl #unexpected result This Perl not built to support threads Compilation failed in require at - line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at - line 1.
This is true for Leopard and Snow Leopard at this time.
