Sorry, it is actually 5.003 that I was first trying to compile - not =

5.004_03 as stated above.  In any case, when I do "make test" on 5.003 =

under 1.3 RELEASE I get:

lib/odbm....../usr/libexec/ld.so: Undefined symbol "_nextkey" in =

perl:../lib/auto/ODBM_File/ODBM_File.so

Failed on test 0

[records of a few further successful tests snipped]

Failed 1 test, 98.94% okay.
u=3D6.9  s=3D14.5833  cu=3D254.433 cs=3D181.65  files=3D93  tests=3D2115

Any ideas?

Regards,

Sean.
