What kind of errors?  I've always gotten the latest version to compile 
without a hitch.

BTW, has anyone gotten xhfs to work under X with NetBSD/mac68k?  Every 
time I try to run it, it kills my X _server_!!!  Very annoying...

I'd put the perl binary in /usr/local/bin/ and the man pages in the 
proper place under /usr/local/man/, but I can't for the life of me 
remember where the libs are at the moment.  I'd look it up on my machine, 
but I've got 7 minutes left to go on a rather slow transfer of 
linuxdoc-sgml1.4.tar.gz...ugh!!

66 permissions?  Really?  I'd think it'd be 077 permissions personally.  
The problem is that the umask is the _inverse_ (well, so to speak) of 
what you actually want the permissions to be.  So, your system default 
umask of 022 will give permissions of 755 (the standard for directories 
and executables), whereas your umask of 700 should give permissions of 
077, leaving your files open to everyone but you.

I hope this helps.

Later.
