| Subject: | Test Fails in 03 as "undefined value as a symbol reference" |
I am running AIX 4.3.3 ML-11+Post on a RS/6000-42W (a PPC-604e w/128MB
ECC RAM), my perl is 5.10.0-aix-stdio (built with gcc-3.4.3 compiled on
this machine), no threads, no largefiles, and no perlio of any
variety---I have appended perl -V output).
During a CPAN load for Class::Accessor::Complex (a long and ridiculously
convoluted process), Path::Class gaaked (besides the commented TODOs
which were printed and ignored by CPAN build). I downloaded sources and
built them using 'perl Makefile.PL', 'make', and then 'make test';
again, the module fails the test in the third test file, at the same
place, and in the same way.
I don't **see** anything amiss; there were no other bug reports of
similar problems; there are no AIX testers reporting.
SYMPTOM: 'make test' fails in the 't/03-filesystem.t' test because the
reference ('$fh') returns 'undef'; as near as I can tell, because the
method call 'my $fh = $file->open('w')' fails:
[9] my $file = file('t', 'testfile');
[10] ok $file;
[11] {
[12] my $fh = $file->open('w');
[13] ok $fh;
[14]
[15] ok print $fh "Foo\n";
[16] }
