in reply to Perl 5.8.3 and Solaris 8, use Socket problem?

I would try something like:
{ no warnings; use POSIX; }
Being a warning, I assume this doesn't interfere with the execution of your program, and you could safely ignore it. If you don't want users to see it, take out the use warnings or the -W switch from your script when you're done development.

    I'm going to try those ideas. I'm just wondering if there is something evil that building Perl on that machine did to Perl itself.

      gcc 2.95 might also be an issue. 3. is widely believed to solve some quirky anomalies.
