The module Math::TrulyRandom is not working in FreeBSD 5.2.1. I installed perl 5.6.1 via ports, and installed Math::TrulyRandom via CPAN.
"make test" hangs forever.
A solution is to add the statement:
return 0;
as the last line of the function tick() in the file truerand.c.
I can only guess that GCC is having issues?
GENERIC 5.2.1 kernel, stock perl 5.6.1 and stock gcc 3.3.3.
