[perl #123814] replace grok_atou with grok_atoUV
Some questions and loose ends: XXX gv.c:S_gv_magicalize - why are we using SSize_t for paren? XXX mg.c:Perl_magic_set - need appopriate error handling for $) XXX regcomp.c:S_reg - need to check if we do the right thing if parno was not grokked Perl_get_debug_opts should probably return something unsigned; not sure if that's something we can change.

This method really just sweeps the problem under the carpet: you tell
Perl to shut up even when Perl sees that something is wrong. Do not
be surprised if later something locale-dependent misbehaves.
