#10713 closed defect (fixed)

BUG: perl5.8 (POSIX::times)[0] is negative

Reported by: vinc17@… Owned by: yeled@…

Description

prunille:~> perl -MPOSIX -e 'print((POSIX::times)[0],"\n")'
-116107445

whereas the POSIX man page implies that the value should be positive. I know an old Linux machine that has the same problem, so it could be that the POSIX module is out-of-date in MacPorts, but I'm not sure.

Sometime in the last couple of years, this problem seems to have gone away.
On my machine, /opt/local/bin/perl -MPOSIX -e 'print((POSIX::times)[0],"\n")' yields 515452010.
Can I close this ticket?
