Hi,
We are maintaining an old webrobot implemented in Perl4 and I'm new to 
this job. When we updated our system to Perl5.004 and run the program, 
the system had run out of memory due to segmentation fault. We found out 
that the declaration 'require "sys/sockets.ph";' is causing the 
trouble.It resulted in a very large number of subroutine calls to other 
functions like stddef.ph, sockaddrcom.ph etc..

Replacing the declaration with 'use Sockets;' did not cause the 
segmentation fault, but the program gives a "Connection failed" message 
and puts out a section of code from wwwhttp.pl and dies. Are we doing 
something wrong here? Do we have to update the package wwwhttp.pl? If 
so, please suggest ways to do it.

We request your valuable suggestions to help us through the problem.

Thanks in advance
Ben
