Has anyone been able to get Perl version 3 patchlevel 41 to work properly under
Irix 3.3.1?  It compile fine, and I did disable the use of "vfork()", but it
still fails it's self tests (base.term to be exact).  Something seems to be
wrong with bcmp() and memcmp() (I've tried both, and I've tried compiling with
and without optimization enabled), because perl thinks:

	"a" lt "b" is true
	"b" lt "a" is true
	"a" gt "b" is false
	"b" gt "a" is false

Help?
