Hi.  I compiled perl3.044 and then ran make test on it.  It failed 5
of the tests.  I went ahead and installed it, cuz it looked like it
worked ok - but I'm wondering.  Is perl supposed to pass all the tests
with flying colors, or are there still bugs that make some of the
tests not work?

The binary was compiled on a DecStation 3100/Ultrix (3.1) box using
-DLANGUAGE_C -UWAITPID -O as cc flags.  Also, it reported no errors
during compilation.
