Re: 1.5.11: execvp bug (XP)


I just tried this, and things get worse. With 5.8.2-1, perl.exe won't run from make. I've reinstalled Cygwin from scratch to try to clean out anything that could be causing problems, but no luck. These are all the commands I ran to reproduce the problem with 5.8.2.

#uname -r
1.5.11(0.116/4/2)

#perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.2 built for cygwin-thread-multi-64int
...

#echo -e 'default:\n\tperl foo.pl' > Makefile

#echo -e '#!/usr/bin/perl\n\n\nprint "Success.\\n"' > foo.pl

#make
perl foo.pl
make: execvp: perl: Permission denied
make: *** [default] Error 127

#chmod +x foo.pl

#./foo.pl
Success.

#perl foo.pl
Success.

#ls -l /usr/bin/perl.exe
-rwxr-x--x+   1 isaacf   Users       11264 Nov  7  2003 /usr/bin/perl.exe

Thanks,
IF

Ah, another possibly relevant point: I use perl 5.8.2-1...  Could you
please try that?
