[where does the comp.lang.perl vote stand?]

system is a sun 4/60 running sunos 4.0.3 w/the uunet sun-fixes
version of libc.so that has name server support in it.

the perl is 'production 3.0' ftp'd from ohio state.

perl on this system complies OK but refuses to link with the
error from ld about undefined symbol -- _gethostent.

I think this problem flew by the list once before -- something
about problems with different versions of things in the
static & dynamic libraries -- but I lost it between the
time I saw it and the time I need it.

thanks.
