Hello This bug evaporated when I reverted Perl back to 5.8.8, which is the current standard on FreeBSD. I don't think this has anything to do with PDL, as most perl modules ended up broken after the reversion. I don't know where to delete this bug report. However I now think it is a fluke related to the sea of code upon which PDL floats. On Dec 21, 2007 11:57 AM, MC <rossiya@gmail.com> wrote: Show quoted text
