-=head1 NAME
-
-perllinux - Perl version 5 on Linux systems
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-This document describes various features of Linux that will affect how Perl
-version 5 (hereafter just Perl) is compiled and/or runs.
-
-=head2 Experimental Support for Sun Studio Compilers for Linux OS
-
-Sun Microsystems has released a port of their Sun Studio compilers for
-Linux. As of November 2005, only an alpha version has been released.
-Until a release of these compilers is made, support for compiling Perl with
-these compiler experimental.
-
-Also, some special instructions for building Perl with Sun Studio on Linux.
-Following the normal C<Configure>, you have to run make as follows:
-
- LDLOADLIBS=-lc make
-
-C<LDLOADLIBS> is an environment variable used by the linker to link modules
-C</ext> modules to glibc. Currently, that environment variable is not getting
-populated by a combination of C<Config> entries and C<ExtUtil::MakeMaker>.
-While there may be a bug somewhere in Perl's configuration or
-C<ExtUtil::MakeMaker> causing the problem, the most likely cause is an
-incomplete understanding of Sun Studio by this author. Further investigation
-is needed to get this working better.
