Subject: FORKS_SIMULATE_USE_ITHREADS=1
I am literally begging for a Makefile.PL environment variable to answer “yes” the useithreads simulation question when there's no tty. My idea is attached. I build my favorite modules and my favorite perl into a package on my various servers and having to stop to interact with forks really kills my automation. Thanks for reading this far, -Paul -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 116 jumps, 48.6 minutes of freefall, 92.9 freefall miles.

Paul, Seems reasonable. I'll plan to add the build env variable in the next release. On Fri Jul 29 08:44:40 2011, JETTERO wrote: Show quoted text
