You might be right, which is why i didn't come screaming to this list but went searching elsewhere first, had i not found the answer i'd probably restarted without 4.2.2. However i found a solution and posted it to this list (for the benefit of those experiencing the same problem). Then i ask a simple question wether or not installing the 4.2.2 compiler instead of the 4.1.2 could be cullprit. In my opinion it shouldn't matter which compiler i choose to install on the system because the one in the toolchain is used to compile perl. I did however get an error and i'm wondering wether i should revise this opinion ... i'm not asking or expecting anyone to deal with non-existing problems.
