+C<BEGIN> blocks are now emitted in the right place most of the time, but

+occurring just before the end of the enclosing block may appear below it
+instead.  XXX So this change may need to be reverted if it cannot be fixed
+before Perl 5.22.  [perl #77452]
 
-=item *
+C<B::Deparse> no longer puts erroneous C<local> here and there, such as for

+Adjacent C<use> statements are no longer accidentally nested if one
+contains a C<do> block.  [perl #115066]
 
-L<B::Op_private> provides detailed information about the flags used in the

+Parenthesised arrays in lists passed to C<\> are now correctly deparsed
+with parentheses (e.g., C<\(@a, (@b), @c)> now retains the parentheses

+C<local our> is now deparsed correctly, with the C<our> included.
 
-L<Archive::Tar> has been upgraded to version 2.02.

-Changes to resolve Coverity issues.
-XS dumps incorrectly stored the name of code references stored in a
-GLOB.

+C<Anything =~ y///r> with C</r> no longer omits the left-hand operand.
 
-=item *
+The op trees that make up regexp code blocks are now deparsed for real.
+Formerly, the original string that made up the regular expression was used.
+That caused problems with C<qr/(?{E<lt>E<lt>heredoc})/> and multiline code blocks,
+which were deparsed incorrectly.  [perl #123217] [perl #115256]
 
-L<experimental> has been upgraded to version 0.010.
+C<$;> at the end of a statement no longer loses its semicolon.
+[perl #123357]
 
-Hardcodes features for Perls older than 5.15.7.
+Some cases of subroutine declarations stored in the stash in shorthand form
+were being omitted.
 
-=item *
+Non-ASCII characters are now consistently escaped in strings, instead of
+some of the time.  (There are still outstanding problems with regular
+expressions and identifiers that have not been fixed.)
 
-L<ExtUtils::CBuilder> has been upgraded to version 0.280219.
+When prototype sub calls are deparsed with C<&> (e.g., under the B<-P>
+option), C<scalar> is now added where appropriate, to force the scalar
+context implied by the prototype.
 
-Fixes a regression on Android.
-L<[perl #122675]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122675>
+C<require(foo())>, C<do(foo())>, C<goto(foo())> and similar constructs with
+loop controls are now deparsed correctly.  The outer parentheses are not
+optional.
 
-=item *
+Whitespace is no longer escaped in regular expressions, because it was
+getting erroneously escaped within C<(?x:...)> sections.
 
-L<ExtUtils::Manifest> has been upgraded to version 1.68.
+C<sub foo { foo() }> is now deparsed with those mandatory parentheses.
 
-Fixes a bug with C<maniread()>'s handling of quoted filenames and improves
-C<manifind()> to follow symlinks.
-L<[perl #122415]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122415>
+C</@array/> is now deparsed as a regular expression, and not just
+C<@array>.
 
-=item *
+C</@{-}/>, C</@{+}/> and C<$#{1}> are now deparsed with the braces, which
+are mandatory in these cases.
 
-L<File::Find> has been upgraded to version 1.28.
+In deparsing feature bundles, B::Deparse was emitting C<no feature;> first
+instead of C<no feature ':all';>.  This has been fixed.
 
-C<find()> and C<finddepth()> will now warn if passed inappropriate or
-misspelled options.
+C<chdir FH> is now deparsed without quotation marks.
 
-=item *
+C<\my @a> is now deparsed without parentheses.  (Parenthese would flatten
+the array.)
 
-L<HTTP::Tiny> has been upgraded to version 0.049.
+C<system> and C<exec> followed by a block are now deparsed correctly.
+Formerly there was an erroneous C<do> before the block.
 
-C<keep_alive> is now fork-safe and thread-safe.
+C<< use constant QR =E<gt> qr/.../flags >> followed by C<"" =~ QR> is no longer
+without the flags.
 
-=item *
+Deparsing C<BEGIN { undef &foo }> with the B<-w> switch enabled started to
+emit 'uninitialized' warnings in Perl 5.14.  This has been fixed.
 
-L<IO> has been upgraded to version 1.34.
+Deparsing calls to subs with a C<(;+)> prototype resulted in an infinite
+loop.  The C<(;$>) C<(_)> and C<(;_)> prototypes were given the wrong
+precedence, causing C<foo($aE<lt>$b)> to be deparsed without the parentheses.
 
-The XS implementation has been fixed for the sake of older Perls.
+Deparse now provides a defined state sub in inner subs.
+Since version Perl 5.21.6, Deparse would croak on special constants, but
+this has now been fixed.

+L<Carp> has been upgraded to version 1.35.
 
-A redundant C<ref $sub> check has been removed.
+Carp::Heavy now ignores version mismatches with Carp if Carp is newer
+than 1.12, since Carp::Heavy's guts were merged into Carp at that
+point.
+L<[perl #121574]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=121574>

-Deparsing of C<$lexical =~ //> was accidentally broken in 1.30 (perl
-5.21.6), omitting the C<$lexical =~>, but has now been fixed.

-C<Anything =~ y///r> with C</r> no longer omits the left-hand operand.
+L<Module::Metadata> has been upgraded to version 1.000024.
 
-The op trees that make up regexp code blocks are now deparsed for real.
-Formerly, the original string that made up the regular expression was used.
-That caused problems with C<qr/(?{E<lt>E<lt>heredoc})/> and multiline code blocks,
-which were deparsed incorrectly.  [perl #123217] [perl #115256]
+Support installations on older perls with an L<ExtUtils::MakeMaker> earlier
+than 6.63_03
 
-C<$;> at the end of a statement no longer loses its semicolon.
-[perl #123357]
+=item *
 
-Some cases of subroutine declarations stored in the stash in shorthand form
-were being omitted.
+L<overload> has been upgraded to version 1.23.
 
-Non-ASCII characters are now consistently escaped in strings, instead of
-some of the time.  (There are still outstanding problems with regular
-expressions and identifiers that have not been fixed.)
+A redundant C<ref $sub> check has been removed.
 
-When prototype sub calls are deparsed with C<&> (e.g., under the B<-P>
-option), C<scalar> is now added where appropriate, to force the scalar
-context implied by the prototype.
+=item *
 
-C<require(foo())>, C<do(foo())>, C<goto(foo())> and similar constructs with
-loop controls are now deparsed correctly.  The outer parentheses are not
-optional.
+The PathTools module collection has been upgraded to version 3.53.
 
-Whitespace is no longer escaped in regular expressions, because it was
-getting erroneously escaped within C<(?x:...)> sections.
+A warning from the B<gcc> compiler is now avoided when building the XS.
 
-C<sub foo { foo() }> is now deparsed with those mandatory parentheses.
+Don't turn leading C<//> into C</> on Cygwin. [perl #122635]
 
-C</@array/> is now deparsed as a regular expression, and not just
-C<@array>.
+=item *
 
-C</@{-}/>, C</@{+}/> and C<$#{1}> are now deparsed with the braces, which
-are mandatory in these cases.
+L<perl5db.pl> has been upgraded to version 1.49.
 
-In deparsing feature bundles, B::Deparse was emitting C<no feature;> first
-instead of C<no feature ':all';>.  This has been fixed.
+The debugger would cause an assertion failure.
+L<[perl #124127]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=124127>
 
-C<chdir FH> is now deparsed without quotation marks.
+C<fork()> in the debugger under C<tmux> will now create a new window for
+the forked process. L<[perl
+#121333]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=121333>
 
-C<\my @a> is now deparsed without parentheses.  (Parenthese would flatten
-the array.)
+The debugger now saves the current working directory on startup and
+restores it when you restart your program with C<R> or C<rerun>. L<[perl
+#121509]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=121509>
 
-C<system> and C<exec> followed by a block are now deparsed correctly.
-Formerly there was an erroneous C<do> before the block.
+=item *
 
-C<< use constant QR =E<gt> qr/.../flags >> followed by C<"" =~ QR> is no longer
-without the flags.
+L<PerlIO::scalar> has been upgraded to version 0.22.
 
-Deparsing C<BEGIN { undef &foo }> with the B<-w> switch enabled started to
-emit 'uninitialized' warnings in Perl 5.14.  This has been fixed.
+Reading from a position well past the end of the scalar now correctly
+returns end of file.  [perl #123443]
 
-Deparsing calls to subs with a C<(;+)> prototype resulted in an infinite
-loop.  The C<(;$>) C<(_)> and C<(;_)> prototypes were given the wrong
-precedence, causing C<foo($aE<lt>$b)> to be deparsed without the parentheses.
+Seeking to a negative position still fails, but no longer leaves the
+file position set to a negation location.
 
-Deparse now provides a defined state sub in inner subs.
-Since version Perl 5.21.6, Deparse would croak on special constants, but
-this has now been fixed.
+C<eof()> on a C<PerlIO::scalar> handle now properly returns true when
+the file position is past the 2GB mark on 32-bit systems.
+
+Attempting to write at file positions impossible for the platform now
+fail early rather than wrapping at 4GB.
