Hi,
I'm testing the new tmpfs (mounted at /tmp) and I notice that perldoc fails.
I've tracked it down to perl adding O_EXLOCK to its call to the perl function
sysopen (which appears to call open). The sysopen call returns with the
error: "Operation not supported". Am I correct in assuming that tmpfs does
not support O_EXLOCK? If not, are there plans to add support in the future?
Thanks,
Sverre
