Great work, Brad.
RedHat users, I'll upload the modified rpm to Redhat's contrib
directory. The (working) packages are named:
sybperl-2.09_05-2.i386.rpm
sybperl-ctlib-2.09_05-2.i386.rpm
In the meantime, they are available at the usual location:
ftp://sysadm.dntis.ro/pub/devel/sybperl
NOTE!
This seems to fix the libtermcap problem as well.
Good luck,
Mihai
