I'm trying to get perl running on our Sequent Balance running Dynix 2.1.1
(which is a BSD4.2 version). The version of perl I'm trying to compile
is patchlevel 18.

Everything seems fine, except when it is executing test 'op.dbm'. It
fails at subtest 5 and all the following subtests. (I've tried both
the standard dbm library and Gnu dbm with the same result.)

I once even got a out of virtual memory at subtest 5 when the machine
was very downloaded (ca 2MB virtual memory free at that time).

Any ideas?
