perl default options: multiplicity, thread ?

[jul_bsd@…]

As I test more my perlchartdir port (Ticket #26004), it seems it is incompatible with current macports perl.

perlchartdir is a binary-only port and planned to be used with Apple perl. It seems you can't use with macports as configure options are different, mainly thread and multiplicity. ​http://www.chartdir.com/forum/download_thread.php?site=chartdir&bn=chartdir_support&thread=1283330578

As I don't know what are the consequences of such parameters, I (stupidly :) ask, is there any reason why these are not default to have something more compatible with Apple perl ?

or is it better/simpler to add perl dependency with variants for perlchartdir ? (I don't remember if it is possible ...)

thanks

Please remember to fill in the Port field and cc the maintainer. See also #22301.

ok for multiplicity. and for threads ?

if I test perlchartdir with 5.10 (including multiplicity and not threads), I still get bug
