Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,


Please discard the question about the matter of some missing POSIX
module constants in the Perl 5.5 on FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE.

A hand ported Perl 5.5 on AIX 4 behaves in much the same way as does
the FreeBSD POSIX module

$ uname -M -a
AIX blah_blah 3 4 009039274C00 IBM PPS Model 7025 (ED)
$ perl -de 1 
  DB<1> use POSIX

  DB<5> p POSIX::PIPE_BUFF
POSIX::PIPE_BUFF
  DB<6> print POSIX::PIPE_BUFF

  DB<7> p _SC_CHILD_MAX
1
  DB<8> p _POSIX_VERSION
199009
  DB<9> p PIPE_BUFF
PIPE_BUFF
  DB<10> p _POSIX_PIPE_BUFF
_POSIX_PIPE_BUFF
  DB<11> p _POSIX_OPEN_MAX
16
  DB<12> 


Thank you,

Yours sincerely.

S Hopcroft
