This is 100% Perl, though it makes use of a number of modules which
have binary components. It also makes some assumptions about the
machine it is running in that will likely fail in the OS/2 world.

This is 100% C, and is typically used as a Perl module built as a
shared object. You'll need to build this to work under OS/2. No one
has ported it there, that I know of.

Yes, this is true.

Linux would be a vastly better choice than OS/2. I say this because I
know it runs on Linux, and you'd be porting it to OS/2, if you can get
it running at all. Whereas with Linux, there are other folks here who
can help you get it running there.
