perl 5.0 alpha 5

    
[editor's note: the sparc executables have not been included,
and emacs backup files and other cruft such as patch backup files have
been removed.  This was reconstructed from a tarball found on the
September 1994 InfoMagic CD]

-[This is an unsupported, pre-release version of Perl 5.0.  It is expected
-to work only on a Sparc architecture machine.  No Configure support is
-provided.  In fact, if you succeed in configuring and making a new
-makefile, you'll probably overwrite the only makefile that works.  Note
-that a Sparc executable comes with the kit, so you may not need to
-compile at all.  There is no list of new features yet, but if you look
-at t/op/ref.t you'll see some of them in use.  perl -Dxst is also fun.]
