PERL Modules - error 4065: Recursion in macro "PerlIO"

[irek_sz1]

I have to install XML-Parser-2.34 on my HP9000. make stops with error 4065.
I don't know how to fix it. Should I install some patches?

Nothing to do with recursion.

You are using HP's braindead bundled C compiler on a perl created with HP C-ANSI-C, and now the ANSI options the correct compiler needs are unrecognized by the compiler you use.

Several options for you:

1. Buy HP's C-ANSI-C compiler

2. Install GNU gcc, and hand edit the Makefile to use gcc compatable options instead of the HP C-ANSi-C options

3. Install another (more recent) perl binary that was built with gcc, install the gcc that perl was built with, and all should go fluent

My HP ITRC site pages can be found at (please use LA as primary choice):

Very long ago there was a bug that caused this in HP's ANSI C complier, but that was nearly 10 years ago.

I suspect that you are using the non-ANSI compliant version that comes free with the OS as Merjin suggested.
