Summary: ld: Mismatched ABI (not an ELF file) for

Initial Comment:
I tried to install the expat1.95.4) on HP-UX 11.0 (64 Bit).
Then I tried to build XML::Parser2.31.1 and I am getting 
the error (ld: Mismatched ABI (not an ELF file). 
I am getting the following error during 
make .

Reading through that output: it is entirely about the
Parser::Expat build, and then linking against a
system-installed expat library.

If the system library was built incorrectly by the Expat
build system, then we might have a problem, but I'm not
seeing or hearing that. This looks like some consistencies
between how people chose to build things on that one box.

In any case, this isn't a valid bug to file here, unless it
can be determined the system expat library was built wrong.
Closing as invalid.

Dropping priority substantially.  This is an HP-UX bug;
someone who can help on that platform needs to figure this
out; the current crop of contributors doesn't seem to
include anyone with knowledge or information about that
platform, and the report doesn't make it clear that this
isn't an XML::Parser problem (XML::Parser is *not* part of
Expat, nor is it provided by the Expat project).

This looks like a build issue to me; I don't know anything about HP-UX, so I 
might be wrong.
