This is a patch for perl (October 2006 version) which enables it to
build dynamic modules with the latest SDK. (53.20)

To use you must take two steps

a) Copy the contents of the directory 'local' within this archive into SDK:


copy local to SDK: all

If this fails you may need to unprotect the files

protect SDK:local/clib2/lib/perl5/5.8.5/ppc-amigaos/Config.pm +redw
protect SDK:local/clib2/lib/perl5/5.8.5/ExtUtils/MM_amigaos.pm +redw

then repeat the copy


b) You need to create a link to the correct library directory in the SDK/


makelink soft from GCC:lib/gcc/ppc-amigaos/4.2.4/clib2-ts to
gcc:lib/gcc/ppc-amigaos/4.2.4/clib2/


Finally anywhere a module suggests you type

perl Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=DYNAMIC

try

perl Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=dynamic

instead.

Or infact just

perl Makfile.PL

should do it.
