[ 18616] Integrate from perlio: [ 18591] PERL_IMPLICIT_SYS does NOT vector PerlIO_xxx but PerlSIO_xxx, so correct XSUB.h [ 18611] Michael Schroeder's fix for re-try if stdio ops after interrupts. (Calls to PERL_ASYNC_CHECK added by NI-S). [ 18612] PerlIO friendly version of speed up of $/ = undef case. [ 18613] fflush() before invalidating stdio's fileno. [ 18615] Don't free thread before using it, breaks platforms that trust that I really want to free what I free, (like HPUX and AIX). [ 18614] Subject: Re: bleadperl: PerlIOStdio_invalidate_fileno breaks fclose semantics From: Nick Ing-Simmons <nick@ing-simmons.net> Date: Sat, 01 Feb 2003 13:03:52 +0000 Message-Id: <20030201130352.1872.12@bactrian.ni-s.u-net.com> [ 18609] Go even further (back) than change #18608 and revert to the 5.8.0 code, since otherwise split.t #40 fails. The four new tests of pat.t should keep us more honest. [ 18608] Subject: [FIX] Re: UTF-8 failures (surprise!)

Used in OP_DBSTATE. Subject: Re: [PATCH] Re: change #9754: 5 x slowdown for perl -d From: Dave Mitchell <davem@fdgroup.com> Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2003 17:42:42 +0000 Message-ID: <20030126174242.H16182@fdgroup.com> [ 18594] Update the pod list for Plan 9. [ 18593] When we copy things out of a hash and increment the refcount of the shared scalar, we really must protect that refcount increase with a lock, or else it might not happen. Fixes segfault when objects would prematurely be killed.
