[uClibc] native build of patched perl 5.8.2 fails with "no member" for f-> filedes

[Greg Dowd]

Any hints?

Building Perl 5.8.2 natively under 2.6.2 with uclibc 0.9.26 (buildroot),
I've applied the patches for perlio.c and the Makefile.PLs.  

Configured using
sh ./Configure -de -Dcc=gcc -Dusethreads (which configures and makes
dependencies fine)

make
The compile command comes out as
CCCMD=gcc -DPERL_CORE -c -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_THREADS_HAVE_PIDS
-fno-strict-aliasing -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 -Wall

sh cflags "optimize='-O2'" perlio.o' perlio.c

And I fail on the changed line in perlio.c  For fun, I tried just changing
it to f->_fileno but that fails the same way.

Currently cross compiling perl in buildroot does not work.  Shouldn't
take all that long to get working with 5.8.3.  But it is kind of far
back on the queue at the moment.
