-----------------
-Version 5.003_20
-----------------
-
-The only language change in this release is the recension of support
-for named closures: Now, no subroutine declared "sub foo {}" can be
-a closure. (This is a return to the behavior of 5.003.) In addition,
-there are new warnings triggered by any apparent attempt to use named
-functions as closures.
-
-And, as usual, there are the usual little fixes, documentation
-updates, and expanded tests. This is good stuff. "I love you, man!"

-----------------
-Version 5.003_19
-----------------
-
-Lots of internal cleanup in this patch, especially plugged memory
-leaks when embedded Perl interpreters shut down and restart. The
-method cache is now invisible to user code. And there is a new test
-directory, "t/pragma".
-
-IMHO, this is Beta quality code.
-
-Here's a list of the more significant changes...

-----------------
-Version 5.003_07
-----------------
-
-This patch was primarily to fix bugs or include little things I missed
-in 5.003_06. 5.003_07 is intended to be stable enough to merit serious
-testing with an eye towards eventual release as 5.004.
-
-If it doesn't work for you, try
-
- LC_ALL=C; export LC_ALL
-
-for Bourne shell users, or
-
- setenv LC_ALL C
-
-for C-shell users. Some versions of IRIX are reported to have
-problems with sort when the locale is other than C. This manifests
-as an infinite loop in the ./miniperl configpm step.
-
-The details are described below. A very brief summary is:
-
-o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
-
- -Support for BER compressed integers. See perlfunc.pod for
- documentation on the 'w' option.
-
- -untaint support added to IO extension.
-
-o Changes in Core Internals
-
- -Perl's realloc is once again called 'Myremalloc' (with -DHIDEMYMALLOC),
- as it was pre-5.003_01. Again, this is for binary compatibility
- with 5.003. (5.003_06 erroneously called it Myrealloc.)
-
- -Getopt::Long updated to version 2.4.
-
-o Configure and build enhancements
-
- -improved SCO hints. Actually these are unconfirmed guesses, but
- they may be right.
-
- -OS/2 and Plan9 updates.
-
-o Bug fixes
-
- -print sort (4,1,3,2);
-
- -group numbers are integers again.
-
- -other things. See the specific changes for details.
-
-o Specific Changes
-
-Here are the specific file-by-file changes.
-
-Index: Changes
-
- Updated for 5.003_07.
-
- Fixed a spelling error.
-
-Index: Configure
-
- Detect GNU libc (thanks, Skimo!) and avoid nm if we have GNU libc.
- Since the GNU libc test requires compiling and linking a test
- program, the dependencies have been altered and lots of pieces of
- Configure have moved around unchanged. The patch is big but the
- effect is little.
-
- Allow for both <sys/select.h> and <time.h> in fd_set tests.
- Systems which don't allow both (e.g. SCO) have to turn off one
- or the other in the hints file for now.
-
-Index: INSTALL
-
- Warn about re-using config.sh version-specific values.

-Index: MANIFEST

- Subject: PATCH: untaint method for IO::Handle, 5.003_06 version
-
- This is a re-post of my patch to Graham's IO library to add a method in
- IO::Handle called "untaint", that sets the IOf_UNTAINT flag on an object
- that is of or inherits from IO::Handle. With this flag set, data read from
- said handle is not tainted, whether running under -T, suid or sgid.
-
- This patch adds the method to IO.xs, adds documentation and warning to the
- pod of IO/Handle.pm, creates a new test in t/lib called io_taint.t, and
- adds mention of the new file to MANIFEST.
-
- Add mention of t/lib/io_taint.t

-
- All the executable targets are moved into the same chunk with
- shared library target, which is delegated to
- $osname/Makefile.SHs if found.
- config.h should depend on config_h.SH.
-
- Remove mkmanifest target, since it will generate incorrectly
- sorted MANIFEST file, I would imagine (I haven't checked).

- Subject: PATCH: untaint method for IO::Handle, 5.003_06 version
-
- This is a re-post of my patch to Graham's IO library to add a method in
- IO::Handle called "untaint", that sets the IOf_UNTAINT flag on an object
- that is of or inherits from IO::Handle. With this flag set, data read from
- said handle is not tainted, whether running under -T, suid or sgid.
-
- This patch adds the method to IO.xs, adds documentation and warning to the

-
- This broke between 5.001n and 5.002. There was a long winded thread
- about sorting undefs in some order (rather than coredumping) around
- the 5.002beta times (search for "bogorefs" in the subject-line on
- p5p archive for details). Larry added in some code that presumes that
- the private flags are set by the time qsort() is called:
-
- Unfortunately, sv_2pv() does not set the POKp flag, so the above
- code breaks! Here's a patch against 5.00306.

-----------------
-Version 5.003_06
-----------------
-
-This patch was primarily to fix bugs, improve the documentation,
-and work towards restoring binary compatibility with 5.003.
-The details are described below. A very brief summary is:
-
-o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
-
- -Significantly improved support _with documentation_ for
- locales, including LC_COLLATE. See the new pod/perli18n.pod.
- Thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi.
-
- -new version of Math::Complex, with test suite. Ought to be
- backwards compatible, but check it out if you use Math::Complex.
-
- -Pre-extending hashes now works. keys %hash = 5000 will pre-size
- %hash.
-
- -__DATA__ filehandle is untainted.
-
-o Changes in Core Internals
-
- -gv_fullname and gv_efullname have reverted to their pre-5.003_03
- versions for binary compatibility. Actually, they are implemented
- as stubs pointing to the new 3-argument forms gv_fullname3 and
- gv_efullname3.
-
- -Perl's malloc is once again called 'Mymalloc' (with -DHIDEMYMALLOC),
- as it was pre-5.003_01. Again, this is for binary compatibility
- with 5.003.
-
-o Configure and build enhancements
-
- -many new tests for the standard library.
-
- -test suite now locale-friendly.
-
- -a2p.man and s2p.man now made into pods.
-
-o Bug fixes
-
- -whitespace lexer errors fixed.
-
- -many, many other things. See details below.
-
-o Specific Changes
-
-Here are the specific file-by-file changes.
-

-cd to your perl source directory and then type
-
- patch -p1 -N < perl5.003_06.pat
-
-The changes are described after each /^Index:/ line below. This is
-designed so you can examine each change with a command such as
-
- csplit -k perl5.003_06.pat '/^Index:/' '{999}'
-
-(Of course, since there are more than 100 Index entries, your
-csplit may complain, since many csplit's have an arbitrary limit of 100
-files. Still, you can manually split the file or roll your own.)

- I found a subtle problem with the lazydelete mechanism (which is used
- to postpone the delete of a entry that may be getting iterated over).
- I was using the HeKLEN slot to hold the hint, but the real HeKLEN is
- needed later to call unsharepvn(). This means that only magical

- Here's a tested patch against 5.00305 that fixes the problem.

- Subject: Pod typos, pod2man bugs, and miscellaneous installation comments
-
- Here is a patch for various typos and other defects in the Perl
- 5.003_05 pods, including the pods embedded in library modules.
-
- Bugs found in pod2man
-
- The following bugs were noticed, and some fixed:
-
- 1. Where a L<> link extends over more than one line, pod2man does not
- treat it as a link but displays it literally, and so these have been
- rearranged to place the link on one line. This is the only bug worked
- around. [Fixed; the rearrangements, which were done beforehand,
- remain in some cases, but are no longer necessary, and pod paragraphs
- can now be safely reformatted to whatever width is desired in the pod,
- without breaking links.]
-
- 2. It seems to swallow spaces after certain links: for example, part
- of the "open" entry in the perlfunc manpage comes out as "the
- \f(CWbinmode\fR entry elsewhere in this documentfor tips", the source
- having been "L</binmode> for tips". [Fixed.]
-
- 3. 'L</"Pass by Reference">', in perlsub.pod, comes out as '\fI/"Pass
- by Reference\fR', that is, with an initial '/"'.
-
- 4. If a pod line begins with ".", nothing is done to prevent [tng]roff
- from treating it as a [tng]roff instruction.
-
- 5. When the paragraph below =head1 NAME has more than one line, this
- confuses pod2man: so in the case of Term::Readline, the manpage begins
- with a stray line 'no real package is found, substitutes stubs instead
- of basic functions."'.
-
- Of course, it would be better to fix pod2man; I hope that the new Pod
- modules, when ready, will not have these defects.

- pseudo-filehandle is already checked against running under eval, so

- Subject: Patch to patch for untainting
-
- The following patch ensures that a glob used as a filehandle that
- has had the UNTAINT flag set will not carry that flag over on a
- re-open. In a nutshell, a re-open of the DATA filehandle would be
- considered untainted, and an object of class IO::Handle (or one of
- its sub-classes) that is marked untainted with the untaint method,
- then closed and re-opened, retained the untaintedness.

- From: Spider Boardman
-
- First, with IO::untaint, the patches as posted resulted in a
- miniperl which couldn't open files, so the autosplitting of the
- library and the creation of Makefiles for the extensions didn't
- work. Worse, it didn't just fail to open files, it dumped core.

- Subject: Re: "Attempt to free non-existent shared string"? (with patch)
-
- I found a subtle problem with the lazydelete mechanism (which is used
- to postpone the delete of a entry that may be getting iterated over).
- I was using the HeKLEN slot to hold the hint, but the real HeKLEN is
- needed later to call unsharepvn(). This means that only magical
- hash entries can use the HeKLEN slot to hold flags.
-
- Here's a tested patch against 5.00305 that fixes the problem.
- The patch simply moves the LAZYDEL hint to become a SV-level private
- flag.

- Subject: Patch: Untaint FH flag and clean DATA handles
-
- This patch adds a IOf_UNTAINT flag in sv.h, as one of the possibles
- on an xpvio->xio_flags struct member. It is used to mark the given
- file handle as a clean source, even when tainting is turned on.
- There are also patches to pp_sys.c in pp_sysread to check this flag
- before tainting data, and in pp_hot.c in do_readline for the same
- reason. Lastly, it patches toke.c to automatically set this flag on
- on a __DATA__ filehandle. The creation of the $pack::DATA
- pseudo-filehandle is already checked against running under eval, so
- this should not introduce any insecurity.
-
- This patch *does not*:
-
- * Add the "untaint" keyword.

- xsubpp should know there's a test suite for that, too, called XSTEST which
- can also be found in my directory on CPAN.

-----------------
-Version 5.003_05
-----------------
-
-This patch was primarily to fix bugs and to clean up some of
-the remaining issues from in 5.003_04. The details are described below.
-A very brief summary is:
-
-o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
-
- -Add support for a READLINE method to tied filehandles.
-
- -times function now uses CLK_TCK if HZ is not available, rather
- than just defaulting to 60. times output might change on some
- systems, but should be correct now.
-
- -AnyDBM_File (modifying ISA does not work as expected)
- Now behaves as documented: Modifying ISA works to select
- order in which *DB* modules are tried. The default is still
- the same.
-
-o Configure and build enhancements
-
- -Enhance detection of [gs]etpgrp() variants. Some systems have
- BSD-style behavior for one and POSIX for the other. Use
- [gs]etpgid() instead, whenever possible.
-
- -You can now build a shared libperl.so without running through
- the LD_RUN_PATH hoops, if your system supports appropriate
- ld command-line options. Solaris, NetBSD, and Linux are currently
- supported. Others are easy to add. (This makes like a lot easier
- for embedders.)
-
- -VMS updates.
-
- -Fix installperl and installman so that the -n option really only
- prints commands. (previously, it would still do the mkdirs.)
-
-o Bug fixes
-
- -debugger ought to work.
-
- -A new heredoc tag in Makefile.SH is now quoted. This prevented
- 5.003_04 from working most places.
-
- -numerous smaller ones, detailed below.
-
-o Specific Changes
-
-Here are the specific file-by-file changes.
-
-# This is my patch perl5.003_05.pat to perl5.003_04
-# The full description is below.
-# Please execute the following commands before applying this patch.
-# (You can feed this patch to 'sh' to do so.)
-# -- Andy Dougherty
-
-# We'll create a new test, but patch won't automatically make it
-# executable.
-touch t/io/read.t
-chmod +x t/io/read.t
-
-exit 0
-
-
-This is patch perl5.003_05.pat to perl version 5.003_04.
-This takes you from 5.003_04 to 5.003_05.
-
-To apply this patch, run the above commands,
-cd to your perl source directory and then type
-
- patch -p1 -N < perl5.003_05.pat
-
-The changes are described after each /^Index/ line below. This is
-designed so you can examine each change with a command such as
-
- csplit -k perl5.003_05.pat '/^Index:/' '{99}'
-
-Index: Changes
-
- Updated for 5.003_05.
-
-Index: Configure
-
- Allow command line or hint-file overrides of $afs.
-
- Allow trailing spaces in nm output for HPUX10.
-
- Check for newer BIND 'search' directives in /etc/resolv.conf as well
- as older 'domain' directive.
-
- Enhance detection of [gs]etpgrp() variants. Some systems have
- BSD-style behavior for one and POSIX for the other. Use
- [gs]etpgid() instead, whenever possible.
-
- Include -s in the -h summary of available options.
-
- Allow command-line override of $afs.
-
- Handle trailing spaces in nm-output on HPUX10.
-
- Set shrpenv for handling LD_RUN_PATH, if needed. (This used to
- be in Makefile.SH. Now it's available for other modules too.)
-
- When using shared libperl, avoid LD_RUN_PATH if possible by adding
- correct ld flags. Currently, Solaris and NetBSD get the correct
- -R $archlibexp/CORE, and Linux gets its
- -Wl,-rpath,$archlibexp/CORE flag. Other contributions are
- welcome.

-
- Replace the oft-repeated mg_ptr incantation with

- Subject: Perl 5.003.03: race condition in t/lib/io_sock.t
-
- io_sock.t works by forking a subprocess it can communicate with.
- It has the subprocess wait for the main process by sleeping 10
- seconds or until an alarm arrives.
-
- With my setup, the alarm signal arrives *before* the child
- has a chance to ignore the alarm signal.
-
- I fixed this by moving the "$SIG{ALRM} = sub {};" up before the
- fork. It does not hurt to have the parent ignore alarms, too.

-
- Changes:
- a) Docs and examples for -x updated;
- b) Path to xxxx.h would not be changed to /usr/include/xxxx.h
- unless this file exists (outside of VMS, I'm afraid to make an error
- there). - Useful with -x option, when the file may be eaten via -I
- inside -F.
- c) .h file would be scanned only if needed.
- d) typemap would be generated (with T_PTROBJ).
- e) Documentation (=list) for autogenerated guys would be
- included into POD.
- f) duplicated XSUBs would not be generated;
- g) arguments to XSUBs being arrays are recognized (note that
- xsubpp would probably choke on such guys).
-
- -x option requires C-Scan-0.3 (releases a couple of minutes ago to
- ftp://ftp.math.ohio-state.edu/pub/users/ilya/perl

-----------------
-Version 5.003_04
-----------------
-
-This patch was primarily to fix bugs and to clean up some of
-the changes made in 5.003_03. The details are described below.
-A very brief summary is:
-
-o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
-
- -Allow and document permissions for FileHandle::new and
- IO::File::new.
- -glob in Safe compartment used to allow shell access; now
- it's in the same category as `` and system().
-
-o Configure and build enhancements
-
- -perl library name is again -lperl, not -lperl5 in some cases.
- -Several hint files no longer set -g -DDEBUGGING by default.
- Instead, they just turn off optimization, since that is
- probably what was intended.
- -Include OS/2 and Plan9 updates.
-
-o Bug fixes
-
- -SEGV with $_[0] and circular references fixed.
- -Ilya's debugger patch.
- -FAKE typeglobs fixed.
- -truncate with file name now works.
- -lval substr() no longer coredumps with refs
- -lval substr now clears lexicals in re-entered scopes.
- -core dump in caller() for signal handler for __DIE__.
-
-o Specific Changes
-
-Here are the specific file-by-file changes.
-
-# This is my patch perl5.003_04.pat to perl5.003_03
-# The full description is below.

-
- Subject: Patch for LONG_MAX & co.
-
- Sorry about adding yet another #ifdef forest, but hopefully this
- should resolve the *_MAX issues permanently. It adds to the
- previously defined PERL_LONG_MAX, PERL_LONG_MIN, and PERL_ULONG_MAX
- symbols the complete set of
- /PERL_U?(CHAR|SHORT|INT|LONG)_(MAX|MIN)/, and installs aliases to
- those from /(I|U)(8|16|32|V)_(MAX|MIN)/ so that for any standard
- Perl typedef, like I32 or UV, you can reference I32_MAX or UV_MIN,
- and get appropriate figures. All references to LONG_(MIN|MAX) are
- changed appropriately.
-
- The .c changes have the side effect of making cast_uv properly use quad
- limits if quads are in use, but longs aren't 64 bit. Hopefully this all
- works, but I don't have any handy Crays to try it out on.
-
- Add notes on perl's internal types, specifically Quad_t and IV.

-Index: malloc.c
-

- in ANSI C, and to give it to stderr instead of stdout.
-

-
-Index: mg.c
-
- Subject: FAKE typeglobs seriously busted (with patch)
-
- Handling of fake typeglobs (scalars that are really globs
- in disguise) is seriously busted since 5.002 (it wasn't
- so in 5.001n).
- The problem is that mg_get() on a glob calls gv_efullname()
- which might coerce its first arg to a string.
-
- Sub-critical patch to conceivably fix some %SIG problems. (Shared hash key
- weren't being properly detected by some of the sig magic, but as shared
- hash keys wouldn't normally be used in %SIG it's unlikely this is a
- significant problem.)
-
- This patch changes neither behavior nor performance. However, it does
- reduce code size and improve maintainability by combining some common
- code in gv_fullname() and gv_efullname().

- Subject: Re: truncate with file name does not work (with patch)
-
- The prototype for truncate was changed so that perl won't die
- with C<use strict;> when the first arg is a bareword (filehandle).
- I think it was Tom (as in "tchrist") who brought this up.
-
- Here's a patch that undoes the damage, makes it work with
- C<use strict;>, and adds to the testsuite.

-
-Index: perlio.c
-
- Removes an incorrect prototype for setlinebuf from
- perlio.c because it conflicts with the correct declaration in
- MachTen's stdio.h (and possibly other stdio's as well).
-
- Secondly, the code in perlio.c is not handling the (!PERLIO_IS_STDIO &
- HAS_F[GS]ETPOS) case. The patch fixes this omission (in a rather lumpen
- manner). I don't think this should affect platforms which try to hack a
- different path through the #ifdef forest, but this assertion would benefit
- from testing...

- From: Chip Salzenberg
- Subject: Track SVs for destruction when -DPURIFY
-
- When checking for memory leaks, I compiled Perl with "-DPURIFY".
- Although that flag improves the leak checking, it also breaks
- destruction of global objects, because SVs aren't kept in captive
- arenas any more.
-
- This patch rectifies the problem by providing an alternative
- method for keeping track of SVs when Perl is compiled for Purify.
- It has no effect on normal operation.

-cd to your perl source directory and then type
-
- patch -p1 -N < perl5.003_03.pat

-Index: Configure
-
- Relaxed warning about ksh on exotic machines.
-
- Changed usesafe to useopcode.
-
- Add search for gzip and zip.
-
- Look more carefully for $sh (the Bourne-ish shell).
- Use that info to set $startsh correctly.
-
- Change prompts for PerlIO interface. See INSTALL
- for how this is supposed to work. The default is
- still the same as in 5.003_02, namely don't use
- any fancy new PerlIO stuff.
-
- Don't look for sigvec() since we don't actually use it.
- (Plus, it used to print an alarming misleading message about
- race conditions.)
-
- Look for stdio's _filbuf under the possible names of
- _filbuf, __filbuf, and _fill.
-
- New $useshrplib variable to control whether we build a shared
- libperl.so. The name of the library is in $libperl.
- Always install it in $installarchlib/CORE/$libperl.
-
- Check for <sys/resource.h> and <sys/wait.h> for NetBSD.
-
- Replace old $altmake stuff with newer autoconf-ish
- $make_set_make, which checks if $make sets $(MAKE). Now you
- choose an alternate make with sh Configure -Dmake=gmake (or
- whatever).
-
- Remove 'ln' for the list of essential commands. Simulate
- it with 'cp' if necessary.
-
- Change `logname` prompts to handle extra gratuitous spaces in
- Ultrix output.
-
- Autodetect os2.
-
- Fix silly bug in checking for fully-qualified names in /etc/hosts.
-
- Generalize Gconvert tests. Give correct and more useful
- error messages.
-
- Use $obj_ext instead of literal '.o' in the dynaloader test.
-
- Include appropriate header files in bcopy() and memcpy()
- tests. Note whether memmove is available.
-
- Check whether struct sigaction works (needed for Solaris 2.5
- with -Xc).
-
- Include appropriate header files for randbits test.
-
-Index: INSTALL
-
- Add note about space requirements.

- useperlio, useshrplib, etc.)
-
- Reorganize the structure of some of the hints.
-
- Miscellaneous clarifications.
-
-Index: MANIFEST
-
- Updated. 5.003_02 introduced some massive patches, mostly
- due to spacing changes. I didn't bother to sort them all out;

-
- Use new $make_set_make directive.
-
- Remove redundant libperl Make variable.

- well have been a failure of configpm that inspired testing
- miniperl in the first place!

-
- Include full descriptions of ARCHLIB, OLDARCHLIB, PRIVLIB,
- SITEARCH, and SITELIB. Previous versions just included the
- ~-expanded names (with unhelpful descriptions). No functionality
- is changed, but maybe it's a little better documented now.

- next_3.sh anyway, so there's been no change in functionality.
-
-Index: hints/next_4.sh
-
- Get rid of extraneous isnext_4 variable. Configure and
- Makefile.SH will use $osname and $osvers instead.
-
- Build up $mab dynamically based on available architectures.
-
- Absorb $mab into ccflags and ccdlflags. I hope that will
- cover everything. (Configure should automatically remove
- the -arch stuff from cppflags.)
-
- Configure now knows next4 needs to use a shared libperl.5.so.

-
-
-----------------
-Version 5.003_01
-----------------
-
-Version 5.003_01 contains bugfixes and additions accumulated since
-version 5.002_01, since the patch to version 5.003 was deliberately
-kept simple. In addition to numerous small bugfixes in the core,
-library files, and documentation, this patch contains several
-significant revisions, summarized below:
-
-o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
-
- - A port to Plan9 has been started, and changes are integrated into
- the standard distribution. As of this release, the Perl core
- and several common extensions are working.
-
- - A set of basic methods in the UNIVERSAL class have been added to
- the Perl core. Since UNIVERSAL is an implicit member of every
- class's @ISA, the methods can be called via any object.
-
- - A mandatory warning has been added for 'declarations' of lexical
- variables using the "my" operator which mask an existing lexical
- variable declared in the same scope, making the previous variable
- inaccessible by its name.
-
- - The "use" and "require" operators have been extended to allow
- checking of the required module's version. The "use" operator
- can now be used for an immediate version check of Perl itself.
-
- - A new "strict" pragma, "strict untie", has been added, which
- produces an error if a tied value is untied when other references
- exist to the internal object implementing the tie.
-
- - Barewords used as associative array keys (i.e. when specifying
- an associative array element like $foo{__BAR} or on the left
- side of the => operator) may now begin with an underscore as
- well as an alphabetic character.
-
- - Some of the configuration information previously produced by the
- -v switch has been moved to the -V switch, in order to keep -v
- output concise.
-
-o Changes in Core Internals
-
- - Symbol table and method lookups have been made faster.
-
- - Perl subroutines which just return a constant value are now
- optimized at compile time into inline constants.
-
- - Management of keys for associative arrays has been improved to
- conserve space when the same keys are reused frequently, and
- to pass true Perl values to tie functions, instead of stringified
- representations.
-
- - Messages normally output to stderr may be directed to another
- stream when Perl is built. This allows some platforms to
- present diagnostic output in a separate window from normal
- program results.
-
- - A bug which caused suiperl to fail silently, albeit securely,
- in version 5.003 on some systems has been fixed.
-
- - Management of Unix-style signal handlers via the %SIG associative
- array has been made safer.
-
- - Several global C symbols have been renamed to eliminate collisions
- with system C header files or libraries on some platforms.
- Unfortunately, this means that dynamic extensions compiled under
- previous versions of Perl will need to be rebuilt for Perl
- 5.003_01. We're in the process of cleaning up Perl's C
- namespace to make it easier to link Perl with other binaries,
- so this will probably happen again between now and version 5.004.
- After that, we'll do our best to maintain binary compatibility
- between versions.
-
- - An alternate allocation strategy has been added to Perl's
- optional private memory management routines. This strategy,
- which may be selected when Perl is built, is designed to
- conserve memory in programs which allocate many small
- chunks of memory with sizes near a power of 2, as is often
- the case in Perl programs.
-
- - Several memory leaks in the creation and destruction of
- multiple interpreters have been fixed.
-
-o Changes in the Standard Library and Utilities
-
- - The Opcode extension, which allows you to control a program's
- access to Perl operations, has been added to the standard
- distribution. This extends the work begun in the original
- Safe extension, and subsumes it. The Safe interface is still
- available.
-
- - The IO extension, which provides a set of classes for object-
- oriented handling of common I/O tasks, has been added to the
- standard distribution. The IO classes will form the basis
- for future development of Perl's I/O interface, and will
- subsume the FileHandle class in the near future. The default
- class to which all Perl I/O handles belong is now IO::Handle,
- rather than FileHandle.
-
- - The ExtUtils::Embed library module, which provides a set
- of utility function to help in embedding Perl in other
- applications, has been added to the standard distribution.
-
- - The Fatal library module, which provides a simple interface
- for creating "do-or-die" equivalents of existing functions,
- has been added to the standard distribution.
-
- - The FindBin library module, which determines the full path
- to the currently executing program, has been added to the
- standard distribution.
-
- - The DB_File extension, and the Getopt::Long, Test::Harness,
- Text::Tabs, Text::Wrap, Time::Local and sigtrap library modules
- have been updated to the authors' latest versions.
-
- - The Carp library module now considers the @ISA chain when
- determining the caller's package for inclusion in error messages.
-
- - The h2xs, perlbug, and xsubpp utilities have been updated.
-
- - The standard Perl debugger has been updated, and the information
- provided to the debugger when an XSUB is called has been improved,
- making it possible for alternate debuggers (such as Devel::DProf)
- to do a better job of tracking XSUB calls.
-
- - The pod documentation formatting tools in the standard distribution
- can now handle characters in the input stream whose high bit is set.
-
- - The cperl-mode EMACS editing mode has been updated.
-
-o Changes in Documentation
-
- - Typographic and formatting errors have been corrected in the pod
- documentation for the core and standard library files
-
- - Explanations of several core operators have been improved
-
- - The perldebug, perlembed, perlipc, perlsec, and perltrap documents
- extensively revised.
-
-o Changes in OS-specific and Build-time Support
-
- - Support for the NeXT platform has been extended through
- NeXTSTEP/OPENSTEP 4.0, and now includes the ability to create MABs.
-
- - Support for OS/2 has been extended as well, and now includes
- options for building a.out binaries.
-
- - Support for VMS has also been extended, incorporating improved
- processing of file specification strings, optional suppression of
- carriage control interpretation for record-structured files,
- improved support for the -S command line switch, a number of
- VMS-specific bugfixes, and significantly improved performance
- in line-oriented reading of files.
-
- - Several hints files have been added or updated: aux.sh (updated),
- convexos.sh (updated), irix_4.sh (updated), irix_5.sh (updated),
- irix_6_2.sh (updated), next_3.sh (updated), next_3_2.sh (new),
- next_3_3.sh (new), next_4.sh (new), os2/sh (updated),
- sco.sh (updated), and solaris_2.sh (updated).
+Maintenance of the 5.004 version of perl continues with the 5.004_xx
+series, where 'xx' is <= 49. Development of the next version, 5.005,
+starts with 5.004_50.
- - The test driver for the regression tests now reports when a set
- of tests have been skipped (presumable because the operation
- they're designed to test isn't supported on the current system).

+Version 5.004_02 Maintenance release 2 for 5.004
+----------------
+
+"When you work you are a flute through whose
+ heart the whispering of the hours turns to music."
+ -- from The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran
+
+
+ HEADLINES FOR THIS MAINTENANCE RELEASE
+
+ Major memory growth bug fixed.
+ Object destruction is more timely and orderly.
+ Further major enhancements to Win32 support, including:
+ Win32 binary compatibility between Visual C++ and Borland C++.
+ The -S option is now more useful on dos/Win32 (see perlrun).
+ Implicit -p print now checks for write errors.
+ DB_File now sub-classable (and other fixes).
+ Memory usage stats available with perl's malloc (see perldelta).
+ 'use UNIVERSAL;' deprecated (see perldelta).
+ Internal integer to string conversions are faster.
+ Carp can be forced to give stack traces (see perldoc Carp).
+ Many other bug fixes and enhancements.

+
+----------------
+Version 5.003_20
+----------------
+
+The only language change in this release is the recension of support
+for named closures: Now, no subroutine declared "sub foo {}" can be
+a closure. (This is a return to the behavior of 5.003.) In addition,
+there are new warnings triggered by any apparent attempt to use named
+functions as closures.
+
+And, as usual, there are the usual little fixes, documentation
+updates, and expanded tests. This is good stuff. "I love you, man!"

+Version 5.003_19
+----------------
+
+Lots of internal cleanup in this patch, especially plugged memory
+leaks when embedded Perl interpreters shut down and restart. The
+method cache is now invisible to user code. And there is a new test
+directory, "t/pragma".
+
+IMHO, this is Beta quality code.

+ Title: "Defined scoping for C<my> in control structures"
+ (Finally defines semantics of "my" in control expressions,
+ like the condition of "if" and "while". In all cases, scope
+ of a "my" var extends to the end of the entire control
+ structure. Also adds new construct "for my", which
+ automatically declares the control variable "my" and limits
+ its scope to the loop.)

+----------------
+Version 5.003_07
+----------------
+
+This patch was primarily to fix bugs or include little things I missed
+in 5.003_06. 5.003_07 is intended to be stable enough to merit serious
+testing with an eye towards eventual release as 5.004.
+
+If it doesn't work for you, try
+
+ LC_ALL=C; export LC_ALL
+
+for Bourne shell users, or
+
+ setenv LC_ALL C
+
+for C-shell users. Some versions of IRIX are reported to have
+problems with sort when the locale is other than C. This manifests
+as an infinite loop in the ./miniperl configpm step.
+
+The details are described below. A very brief summary is:
+
+o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
+
+ -Support for BER compressed integers. See perlfunc.pod for
+ documentation on the 'w' option.
+
+ -untaint support added to IO extension.
+
+o Changes in Core Internals
+
+ -Perl's realloc is once again called 'Myremalloc' (with -DHIDEMYMALLOC),
+ as it was pre-5.003_01. Again, this is for binary compatibility
+ with 5.003. (5.003_06 erroneously called it Myrealloc.)
+
+ -Getopt::Long updated to version 2.4.
+
+o Configure and build enhancements
+
+ -improved SCO hints. Actually these are unconfirmed guesses, but
+ they may be right.
+
+ -OS/2 and Plan9 updates.
+
+o Bug fixes
+
+ -print sort (4,1,3,2);
+
+ -group numbers are integers again.
+
+ -other things. See the specific changes for details.
+
+o Specific Changes
+
+Here are the specific file-by-file changes.
+
+Index: Changes
+
+ Updated for 5.003_07.
+
+ Fixed a spelling error.
+
+Index: Configure
+
+ Detect GNU libc (thanks, Skimo!) and avoid nm if we have GNU libc.
+ Since the GNU libc test requires compiling and linking a test
+ program, the dependencies have been altered and lots of pieces of
+ Configure have moved around unchanged. The patch is big but the
+ effect is little.
+
+ Allow for both <sys/select.h> and <time.h> in fd_set tests.
+ Systems which don't allow both (e.g. SCO) have to turn off one
+ or the other in the hints file for now.

+ Subject: PATCH: untaint method for IO::Handle, 5.003_06 version
+
+ This is a re-post of my patch to Graham's IO library to add a method in
+ IO::Handle called "untaint", that sets the IOf_UNTAINT flag on an object
+ that is of or inherits from IO::Handle. With this flag set, data read from
+ said handle is not tainted, whether running under -T, suid or sgid.
+
+ This patch adds the method to IO.xs, adds documentation and warning to the
+ pod of IO/Handle.pm, creates a new test in t/lib called io_taint.t, and
+ adds mention of the new file to MANIFEST.
+
+ Add mention of t/lib/io_taint.t

+
+ This broke between 5.001n and 5.002. There was a long winded thread
+ about sorting undefs in some order (rather than coredumping) around
+ the 5.002beta times (search for "bogorefs" in the subject-line on
+ p5p archive for details). Larry added in some code that presumes that
+ the private flags are set by the time qsort() is called:
+
+ Unfortunately, sv_2pv() does not set the POKp flag, so the above
+ code breaks! Here's a patch against 5.00306.

+
+ This is a re-post of my patch to Graham's IO library to add a method in
+ IO::Handle called "untaint", that sets the IOf_UNTAINT flag on an object
+ that is of or inherits from IO::Handle. With this flag set, data read from
+ said handle is not tainted, whether running under -T, suid or sgid.
+
+ This patch adds the method to IO.xs, adds documentation and warning to the

+ adds mention of the new file to MANIFEST.

+
+----------------
+Version 5.003_06
+----------------
+
+This patch was primarily to fix bugs, improve the documentation,
+and work towards restoring binary compatibility with 5.003.
+The details are described below. A very brief summary is:
+
+o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
+
+ -Significantly improved support _with documentation_ for
+ locales, including LC_COLLATE. See the new pod/perli18n.pod.
+ Thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi.
+
+ -new version of Math::Complex, with test suite. Ought to be
+ backwards compatible, but check it out if you use Math::Complex.
+
+ -Pre-extending hashes now works. keys %hash = 5000 will pre-size
+ %hash.
+
+ -__DATA__ filehandle is untainted.
+
+o Changes in Core Internals
+
+ -gv_fullname and gv_efullname have reverted to their pre-5.003_03
+ versions for binary compatibility. Actually, they are implemented
+ as stubs pointing to the new 3-argument forms gv_fullname3 and
+ gv_efullname3.
+
+ -Perl's malloc is once again called 'Mymalloc' (with -DHIDEMYMALLOC),
+ as it was pre-5.003_01. Again, this is for binary compatibility
+ with 5.003.
+
+o Configure and build enhancements
+
+ -many new tests for the standard library.
+
+ -test suite now locale-friendly.
+
+ -a2p.man and s2p.man now made into pods.
+
+o Bug fixes
+
+ -whitespace lexer errors fixed.
+
+ -many, many other things. See details below.
+
+o Specific Changes
+
+Here are the specific file-by-file changes.

+ Subject: Full LONG_MAX & co. patch over 5.003_05
+
+ This patch contains the changes I've collected for the various _MAX issues
+ since 5.003_05. No patches issued between 5.003_05 and this one should be
+ applied, use this one instead.
+
+ The effect is to remove the CHAR_* and I8_* constants (which are
+ ambiguous) and to explicitly cast all of the constants.

+
+ I found a subtle problem with the lazydelete mechanism (which is used
+ to postpone the delete of a entry that may be getting iterated over).
+ I was using the HeKLEN slot to hold the hint, but the real HeKLEN is
+ needed later to call unsharepvn(). This means that only magical
+ hash entries can use the HeKLEN slot to hold flags.
+
+ Here's a tested patch against 5.00305 that fixes the problem.

+
+ The effect is to remove the CHAR_* and I8_* constants (which are

+
+ Here is a patch for various typos and other defects in the Perl
+ 5.003_05 pods, including the pods embedded in library modules.
+
+ Bugs found in pod2man
+
+ The following bugs were noticed, and some fixed:
+
+ 1. Where a L<> link extends over more than one line, pod2man does not
+ treat it as a link but displays it literally, and so these have been
+ rearranged to place the link on one line. This is the only bug worked
+ around. [Fixed; the rearrangements, which were done beforehand,
+ remain in some cases, but are no longer necessary, and pod paragraphs
+ can now be safely reformatted to whatever width is desired in the pod,
+ without breaking links.]
+
+ 2. It seems to swallow spaces after certain links: for example, part
+ of the "open" entry in the perlfunc manpage comes out as "the
+ \f(CWbinmode\fR entry elsewhere in this documentfor tips", the source
+ having been "L</binmode> for tips". [Fixed.]
+
+ 3. 'L</"Pass by Reference">', in perlsub.pod, comes out as '\fI/"Pass
+ by Reference\fR', that is, with an initial '/"'.
+
+ 4. If a pod line begins with ".", nothing is done to prevent [tng]roff
+ from treating it as a [tng]roff instruction.
+
+ 5. When the paragraph below =head1 NAME has more than one line, this
+ confuses pod2man: so in the case of Term::Readline, the manpage begins
+ with a stray line 'no real package is found, substitutes stubs instead
+ of basic functions."'.
+
+ Of course, it would be better to fix pod2man; I hope that the new Pod
+ modules, when ready, will not have these defects.

+ Subject: Patch to patch for untainting
+
+ The following patch ensures that a glob used as a filehandle that
+ has had the UNTAINT flag set will not carry that flag over on a
+ re-open. In a nutshell, a re-open of the DATA filehandle would be
+ considered untainted, and an object of class IO::Handle (or one of
+ its sub-classes) that is marked untainted with the untaint method,
+ then closed and re-opened, retained the untaintedness.

+----------------
+Version 5.003_05
+----------------
+
+This patch was primarily to fix bugs and to clean up some of
+the remaining issues from in 5.003_04. The details are described below.
+A very brief summary is:
+
+o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
+
+ -Add support for a READLINE method to tied filehandles.
+
+ -times function now uses CLK_TCK if HZ is not available, rather
+ than just defaulting to 60. times output might change on some
+ systems, but should be correct now.
+
+ -AnyDBM_File (modifying ISA does not work as expected)
+ Now behaves as documented: Modifying ISA works to select
+ order in which *DB* modules are tried. The default is still
+ the same.
+
+o Configure and build enhancements
+
+ -Enhance detection of [gs]etpgrp() variants. Some systems have
+ BSD-style behavior for one and POSIX for the other. Use
+ [gs]etpgid() instead, whenever possible.
+
+ -You can now build a shared libperl.so without running through
+ the LD_RUN_PATH hoops, if your system supports appropriate
+ ld command-line options. Solaris, NetBSD, and Linux are currently
+ supported. Others are easy to add. (This makes like a lot easier
+ for embedders.)
+
+ -VMS updates.
+
+ -Fix installperl and installman so that the -n option really only
+ prints commands. (previously, it would still do the mkdirs.)
+
+o Bug fixes
+
+ -debugger ought to work.
+
+ -A new heredoc tag in Makefile.SH is now quoted. This prevented
+ 5.003_04 from working most places.
+
+ -numerous smaller ones, detailed below.
+
+o Specific Changes
+
+Here are the specific file-by-file changes.
+
+# This is my patch perl5.003_05.pat to perl5.003_04
+# The full description is below.
+# Please execute the following commands before applying this patch.
+# (You can feed this patch to 'sh' to do so.)
+# -- Andy Dougherty

+
+
+This is patch perl5.003_05.pat to perl version 5.003_04.
+This takes you from 5.003_04 to 5.003_05.
+
+To apply this patch, run the above commands,
+cd to your perl source directory and then type
+
+ patch -p1 -N < perl5.003_05.pat
+
+The changes are described after each /^Index/ line below. This is
+designed so you can examine each change with a command such as
+
+ csplit -k perl5.003_05.pat '/^Index:/' '{99}'
+
+Index: Changes
+
+ Updated for 5.003_05.
+
+Index: Configure
+
+ Allow command line or hint-file overrides of $afs.
+
+ Allow trailing spaces in nm output for HPUX10.
+
+ Check for newer BIND 'search' directives in /etc/resolv.conf as well
+ as older 'domain' directive.
+
+ Enhance detection of [gs]etpgrp() variants. Some systems have
+ BSD-style behavior for one and POSIX for the other. Use
+ [gs]etpgid() instead, whenever possible.
+
+ Include -s in the -h summary of available options.
+
+ Allow command-line override of $afs.
+
+ Handle trailing spaces in nm-output on HPUX10.
+
+ Set shrpenv for handling LD_RUN_PATH, if needed. (This used to
+ be in Makefile.SH. Now it's available for other modules too.)
+
+ When using shared libperl, avoid LD_RUN_PATH if possible by adding
+ correct ld flags. Currently, Solaris and NetBSD get the correct
+ -R $archlibexp/CORE, and Linux gets its
+ -Wl,-rpath,$archlibexp/CORE flag. Other contributions are
+ welcome.

+
+ Subject: debugger problems--another patch (was Re: 5.003_04)
+
+ I have tried to avoid copying of hash keys that are passed to

+
+
+ Add helpful "die" message to end of AnyDBM_File. Previously
+ it would return a 0, and the failure would eventually show up
+ somewhere else in the script and be hard to track down. It is
+ a failure if perl can't open AnyDBM_File. The test regression
+ suite is supposed to indicate this as a failure too.

+
+Index: lib/Math/Complex.pm
+
+ There was a mistake in the sqrt routine in lib/Math/Complex.pm that
+ gave wrong answers when the magnitude of the imaginary part of the
+ argument exceeded the magnitude of the real part. Line 69 had too
+ many sqrt($y)'s. Further, expressions were re-arranged so that

+ syslog.pl tries but fails to use

+Index: mg.c
+
+ Ok, here's a tested patch for the debugger problem.
+ I was missing the fact that DB::dbline magic is actually
+ uppercase (which means hv_store_ent() etc., will pass SV keys

+
+ Replace the oft-repeated mg_ptr incantation with
+ the simple MgPVKEY macro.
+
+ Rename MgPVKEY to MgPV (to match with HePV elsewhere). Add
+ additional parens around the "mg".
+
+ (lines near 584) Part of VMS changes. I don't know what this did.
+
+ Date: Fri, 23 Aug 1996 17:20:22 -0400 (EDT)
+ From: Chip Salzenberg
+ Subject: Integerize mg.c; eliminate warning on C< local($)) >
+
+ This patch converts magic variables ($!, $^E, etc.) to use integers
+ (C<sv_setiv>) instead of floats. It also eliminates a warning from
+ C< local($)) >, via a hack similar to $!.

+
+ io_sock.t works by forking a subprocess it can communicate with.
+ It has the subprocess wait for the main process by sleeping 10
+ seconds or until an alarm arrives.
+
+ With my setup, the alarm signal arrives *before* the child
+ has a chance to ignore the alarm signal.
+
+ I fixed this by moving the "$SIG{ALRM} = sub {};" up before the
+ fork. It does not hurt to have the parent ignore alarms, too.

+ b) Path to xxxx.h would not be changed to /usr/include/xxxx.h

+ there). - Useful with -x option, when the file may be eaten via -I
+ inside -F.

+ d) typemap would be generated (with T_PTROBJ).
+ e) Documentation (=list) for autogenerated guys would be
+ included into POD.
+ f) duplicated XSUBs would not be generated;

+----------------
+Version 5.003_04
+----------------
+
+This patch was primarily to fix bugs and to clean up some of
+the changes made in 5.003_03. The details are described below.
+A very brief summary is:
+
+o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
+
+ -Allow and document permissions for FileHandle::new and
+ IO::File::new.
+ -glob in Safe compartment used to allow shell access; now
+ it's in the same category as `` and system().
+
+o Configure and build enhancements
+
+ -perl library name is again -lperl, not -lperl5 in some cases.
+ -Several hint files no longer set -g -DDEBUGGING by default.
+ Instead, they just turn off optimization, since that is
+ probably what was intended.
+ -Include OS/2 and Plan9 updates.
+
+o Bug fixes
+
+ -SEGV with $_[0] and circular references fixed.
+ -Ilya's debugger patch.
+ -FAKE typeglobs fixed.
+ -truncate with file name now works.
+ -lval substr() no longer coredumps with refs
+ -lval substr now clears lexicals in re-entered scopes.
+ -core dump in caller() for signal handler for __DIE__.
+
+o Specific Changes
+
+Here are the specific file-by-file changes.
+
+# This is my patch perl5.003_04.pat to perl5.003_03

+ Perl typedef, like I32 or UV, you can reference I32_MAX or UV_MIN,
+ and get appropriate figures. All references to LONG_(MIN|MAX) are
+ changed appropriately.
+
+ The .c changes have the side effect of making cast_uv properly use quad
+ limits if quads are in use, but longs aren't 64 bit. Hopefully this all
+ works, but I don't have any handy Crays to try it out on.

+
+Index: mg.c
+
+ Subject: FAKE typeglobs seriously busted (with patch)
+
+ Handling of fake typeglobs (scalars that are really globs
+ in disguise) is seriously busted since 5.002 (it wasn't
+ so in 5.001n).
+ The problem is that mg_get() on a glob calls gv_efullname()
+ which might coerce its first arg to a string.
+
+ Sub-critical patch to conceivably fix some %SIG problems. (Shared hash key
+ weren't being properly detected by some of the sig magic, but as shared
+ hash keys wouldn't normally be used in %SIG it's unlikely this is a
+ significant problem.)
+
+ This patch changes neither behavior nor performance. However, it does
+ reduce code size and improve maintainability by combining some common
+ code in gv_fullname() and gv_efullname().

+ Subject: Re: truncate with file name does not work (with patch)

+ The prototype for truncate was changed so that perl won't die
+ with C<use strict;> when the first arg is a bareword (filehandle).
+ I think it was Tom (as in "tchrist") who brought this up.
+
+ Here's a patch that undoes the damage, makes it work with

+
+Index: perlio.c
+
+ Removes an incorrect prototype for setlinebuf from
+ perlio.c because it conflicts with the correct declaration in
+ MachTen's stdio.h (and possibly other stdio's as well).
+
+ Secondly, the code in perlio.c is not handling the (!PERLIO_IS_STDIO &
+ HAS_F[GS]ETPOS) case. The patch fixes this omission (in a rather lumpen
+ manner). I don't think this should affect platforms which try to hack a
+ different path through the #ifdef forest, but this assertion would benefit
+ from testing...

+
+ From: Chip Salzenberg
+ Subject: Track SVs for destruction when -DPURIFY
+
+ When checking for memory leaks, I compiled Perl with "-DPURIFY".
+ Although that flag improves the leak checking, it also breaks
+ destruction of global objects, because SVs aren't kept in captive
+ arenas any more.
+
+ This patch rectifies the problem by providing an alternative
+ method for keeping track of SVs when Perl is compiled for Purify.
+ It has no effect on normal operation.
+
+
+ Add comment about assert(len >=0) when len is unsigned anyway.

+Version 5.003_03
+----------------
+
+Most of the changes in 5.003_03 are to make the build and installation
+process more robust. The details are described below. A very brief
+summary is:
+
+o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
+
+ -Support for tied filehandles.
+
+o Configure enhancements
+
+ -How to build and install a shared libperl.so is now documented
+ and supported, though it's not the default for most platforms.
+
+o Bug fixes
+
+ -Support bit operations on strings longer than 15 bytes.
+
+ -If a regex supplied to split() contains paranthesized subpatterns
+ that can result in null matches, perl no longer coredumps.
+
+ -Fix problems with each() on tied hashes.
+
+ -Make h2ph architecture-independent by using Config at run-time
+ rather than extraction time.
+
+o Specific Changes
+
+Here are the specific file-by-file changes.
+
+# This is my patch perl5.003_03.pat to perl5.003_02
+# The full description is below.

+
+ New file. Changes from 5.002 to 5.003
+
+Index: Configure
+
+ Relaxed warning about ksh on exotic machines.
+
+ Changed usesafe to useopcode.
+
+ Add search for gzip and zip.
+
+ Look more carefully for $sh (the Bourne-ish shell).
+ Use that info to set $startsh correctly.
+
+ Change prompts for PerlIO interface. See INSTALL
+ for how this is supposed to work. The default is
+ still the same as in 5.003_02, namely don't use
+ any fancy new PerlIO stuff.
+
+ Don't look for sigvec() since we don't actually use it.
+ (Plus, it used to print an alarming misleading message about
+ race conditions.)
+
+ Look for stdio's _filbuf under the possible names of
+ _filbuf, __filbuf, and _fill.
+
+ New $useshrplib variable to control whether we build a shared
+ libperl.so. The name of the library is in $libperl.
+ Always install it in $installarchlib/CORE/$libperl.
+
+ Check for <sys/resource.h> and <sys/wait.h> for NetBSD.
+
+ Replace old $altmake stuff with newer autoconf-ish
+ $make_set_make, which checks if $make sets $(MAKE). Now you
+ choose an alternate make with sh Configure -Dmake=gmake (or
+ whatever).
+
+ Remove 'ln' for the list of essential commands. Simulate
+ it with 'cp' if necessary.
+
+ Change `logname` prompts to handle extra gratuitous spaces in
+ Ultrix output.
+
+ Autodetect os2.
+
+ Fix silly bug in checking for fully-qualified names in /etc/hosts.
+
+ Generalize Gconvert tests. Give correct and more useful
+ error messages.
+
+ Use $obj_ext instead of literal '.o' in the dynaloader test.
+
+ Include appropriate header files in bcopy() and memcpy()
+ tests. Note whether memmove is available.
+
+ Check whether struct sigaction works (needed for Solaris 2.5
+ with -Xc).
+
+ Include appropriate header files for randbits test.
+
+Index: INSTALL
+
+ Add note about space requirements.
+
+ Update to match Configure changes (Opcode vs. Safe,
+ useperlio, useshrplib, etc.)
+
+ Reorganize the structure of some of the hints.
+
+ Miscellaneous clarifications.
+
+Index: MANIFEST
+
+ Updated. 5.003_02 introduced some massive patches, mostly
+ due to spacing changes. I didn't bother to sort them all out;
+ I just started with 5.003's MANIEFST.
+
+Index: Makefile.SH
+
+ Support the new simplified shared libperl mechanism.
+
+ Use new $make_set_make directive.
+
+ Remove redundant libperl Make variable.

+ well have been a failure of configpm that inspired testing
+ miniperl in the first place!

+ is changed, but maybe it's a little better documented now.
+

+
+ Build up $mab dynamically. Since $mab isn't used anywhere

+ next_3.sh anyway, so there's been no change in functionality.
+
+Index: hints/next_4.sh
+
+ Get rid of extraneous isnext_4 variable. Configure and
+ Makefile.SH will use $osname and $osvers instead.
+
+ Build up $mab dynamically based on available architectures.
+
+ Absorb $mab into ccflags and ccdlflags. I hope that will
+ cover everything. (Configure should automatically remove
+ the -arch stuff from cppflags.)
+
+ Configure now knows next4 needs to use a shared libperl.5.so.
+
+ Allow users to use -Dprefix.
+
+Index: hints/os2.sh
+
+ Try to update to reflect newer shared libperl stuff.
+ I probably goofed :-).
+
+Index: hints/sco.sh
+
+ Additional notes on using icc.
+
+ Additional flags for dynamic loading.
+
+Index: hints/solaris_2.sh
+
+ Perl.h no longer prefers bcmp, so it's again ok if Configure
+ finds them, since perl will prefer the mem* versions anyway.

+----------------
+Version 5.003_02
+----------------
+
+o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
+ - Redefining constant subs, or changing sub's prototype now give warnings.
+ - Fixes for ++/-- of values close to max/min size of an integer
+ - Warning for un-qualified bareword as handler in $SIG{}.
+ - UNIVERSAL::isa can now be called as static method.
+
+o Changes in Core Internals
+ - PerlIO abstraction added.
+ Perl core and standard extensions no longer assume ANSI C's stdio is IO
+ mechanism, Default Configure mode is still to use stdio via set of C macros.
+ Alternate modes are to use stdio via one perlio.c module, or
+ to use sfio if available.
+
+ - Several bug fixs from perl5-porters
+ - Make sources non-ANSI C correct again.
+ - SUPER in gv.c
+ - Last of shared-hash-key patches
+ - eval '(0,1..3)'; # --> SegFault
+ - coredumps after simple subsitutes.
+ - Correction to UNIVERSAL::VERSION docs.
+ - Fixed io_udp test.
+ - Fixed another abuse of malloc'ed memory.
+ - Enabled DEBUGING_MSTATS whenever perl's malloc() is used.
+ - Reverted to default of not hiding perl's malloc (if used).
+
+o Changes in the Standard Library and Utilities
+ - Fixed MakeMaker for static SDBM and builing in a link tree.
+ - Upgraded to IO-1.09, and includes latest (still experimental) IO::Select.
+ - Documentation/test tweak to DB_File
+ - h2xs upgrade to allow use C::Scan module
+
+o Changes in OS-specific and Build-time Support
+ - Attempted to re-created 5.003_01's NeXT support with metaconfig units.
+ - Updated MANIFEST
+ - make minitest now depends on lib/Config.pm, as some of tests require it.
+ - Included latest plan9 sub-directory
+ - Applied OS/2 patches.
+ - Typo patch for VMS.
+
+
+----------------
+Version 5.003_01
+----------------
+
+Version 5.003_01 contains bugfixes and additions accumulated since
+version 5.002_01, since the patch to version 5.003 was deliberately
+kept simple. In addition to numerous small bugfixes in the core,
+library files, and documentation, this patch contains several
+significant revisions, summarized below:
+
+o Visible Changes to Core Functionality
+
+ - A port to Plan9 has been started, and changes are integrated into
+ the standard distribution. As of this release, the Perl core
+ and several common extensions are working.
+
+ - A set of basic methods in the UNIVERSAL class have been added to
+ the Perl core. Since UNIVERSAL is an implicit member of every
+ class's @ISA, the methods can be called via any object.
+
+ - A mandatory warning has been added for 'declarations' of lexical
+ variables using the "my" operator which mask an existing lexical
+ variable declared in the same scope, making the previous variable
+ inaccessible by its name.
+
+ - The "use" and "require" operators have been extended to allow
+ checking of the required module's version. The "use" operator
+ can now be used for an immediate version check of Perl itself.
+
+ - A new "strict" pragma, "strict untie", has been added, which
+ produces an error if a tied value is untied when other references
+ exist to the internal object implementing the tie.
+
+ - Barewords used as associative array keys (i.e. when specifying
+ an associative array element like $foo{__BAR} or on the left
+ side of the => operator) may now begin with an underscore as
+ well as an alphabetic character.
+
+ - Some of the configuration information previously produced by the
+ -v switch has been moved to the -V switch, in order to keep -v
+ output concise.
+
+o Changes in Core Internals
+
+ - Symbol table and method lookups have been made faster.
+
+ - Perl subroutines which just return a constant value are now
+ optimized at compile time into inline constants.
+
+ - Management of keys for associative arrays has been improved to
+ conserve space when the same keys are reused frequently, and
+ to pass true Perl values to tie functions, instead of stringified
+ representations.
+
+ - Messages normally output to stderr may be directed to another
+ stream when Perl is built. This allows some platforms to
+ present diagnostic output in a separate window from normal
+ program results.
+
+ - A bug which caused suiperl to fail silently, albeit securely,
+ in version 5.003 on some systems has been fixed.
+
+ - Management of Unix-style signal handlers via the %SIG associative
+ array has been made safer.
+
+ - Several global C symbols have been renamed to eliminate collisions
+ with system C header files or libraries on some platforms.
+ Unfortunately, this means that dynamic extensions compiled under
+ previous versions of Perl will need to be rebuilt for Perl
+ 5.003_01. We're in the process of cleaning up Perl's C
+ namespace to make it easier to link Perl with other binaries,
+ so this will probably happen again between now and version 5.004.
+ After that, we'll do our best to maintain binary compatibility
+ between versions.
+
+ - An alternate allocation strategy has been added to Perl's
+ optional private memory management routines. This strategy,
+ which may be selected when Perl is built, is designed to
+ conserve memory in programs which allocate many small
+ chunks of memory with sizes near a power of 2, as is often
+ the case in Perl programs.
+
+ - Several memory leaks in the creation and destruction of
+ multiple interpreters have been fixed.
+
+o Changes in the Standard Library and Utilities
+
+ - The Opcode extension, which allows you to control a program's
+ access to Perl operations, has been added to the standard
+ distribution. This extends the work begun in the original
+ Safe extension, and subsumes it. The Safe interface is still
+ available.
+
+ - The IO extension, which provides a set of classes for object-
+ oriented handling of common I/O tasks, has been added to the
+ standard distribution. The IO classes will form the basis
+ for future development of Perl's I/O interface, and will
+ subsume the FileHandle class in the near future. The default
+ class to which all Perl I/O handles belong is now IO::Handle,
+ rather than FileHandle.
+
+ - The ExtUtils::Embed library module, which provides a set
+ of utility function to help in embedding Perl in other
+ applications, has been added to the standard distribution.
+
+ - The Fatal library module, which provides a simple interface
+ for creating "do-or-die" equivalents of existing functions,
+ has been added to the standard distribution.
+
+ - The FindBin library module, which determines the full path
+ to the currently executing program, has been added to the
+ standard distribution.
+
+ - The DB_File extension, and the Getopt::Long, Test::Harness,
+ Text::Tabs, Text::Wrap, Time::Local and sigtrap library modules
+ have been updated to the authors' latest versions.
+
+ - The Carp library module now considers the @ISA chain when
+ determining the caller's package for inclusion in error messages.
+
+ - The h2xs, perlbug, and xsubpp utilities have been updated.
+
+ - The standard Perl debugger has been updated, and the information
+ provided to the debugger when an XSUB is called has been improved,
+ making it possible for alternate debuggers (such as Devel::DProf)
+ to do a better job of tracking XSUB calls.
+
+ - The pod documentation formatting tools in the standard distribution
+ can now handle characters in the input stream whose high bit is set.
+
+ - The cperl-mode EMACS editing mode has been updated.
+
+o Changes in Documentation
+
+ - Typographic and formatting errors have been corrected in the pod
+ documentation for the core and standard library files
+
+ - Explanations of several core operators have been improved
+
+ - The perldebug, perlembed, perlipc, perlsec, and perltrap documents
+ extensively revised.
+
+o Changes in OS-specific and Build-time Support
+
+ - Support for the NeXT platform has been extended through
+ NeXTSTEP/OPENSTEP 4.0, and now includes the ability to create MABs.
+
+ - Support for OS/2 has been extended as well, and now includes
+ options for building a.out binaries.
+
+ - Support for VMS has also been extended, incorporating improved
+ processing of file specification strings, optional suppression of
+ carriage control interpretation for record-structured files,
+ improved support for the -S command line switch, a number of
+ VMS-specific bugfixes, and significantly improved performance
+ in line-oriented reading of files.
+
+ - Several hints files have been added or updated: aux.sh (updated),
+ convexos.sh (updated), irix_4.sh (updated), irix_5.sh (updated),
+ irix_6_2.sh (updated), next_3.sh (updated), next_3_2.sh (new),
+ next_3_3.sh (new), next_4.sh (new), os2/sh (updated),
+ sco.sh (updated), and solaris_2.sh (updated).
+
+ - The test driver for the regression tests now reports when a set
+ of tests have been skipped (presumable because the operation
+ they're designed to test isn't supported on the current system).

+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Thread::Signal;
+
+ $SIG{HUP} = \&some_handler;
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The C<Thread::Signal> module starts up a special signal handler thread.
+All signals to the process are delivered to it and it runs the
+associated C<$SIG{FOO}> handlers for them. Without this module,
+signals arriving at inopportune moments (such as when perl's internals
+are in the middle of updating critical structures) cause the perl
+code of the handler to be run unsafely which can cause memory corruption
+or worse.
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+This module changes the semantics of signal handling slightly in that
+the signal handler is run separately from the main thread (and in
+parallel with it). This means that tricks such as calling C<die> from
+a signal handler behave differently (and, in particular, can't be
+used to exit directly from a system call).

expecting an int), but the disadvantage that an I32 is not 32 bits.
Andy Dougherty August 1996
- In the future, we may perhaps want to think about something like
- #if INTSIZE == 4
- typedef I32 int;
- #else
- # if LONGSIZE == 4
- typedef I32 long;
- # else
- # if SHORTSIZE == 4
- typedef I32 short;
- # else
- typedef I32 int;
- # endif
- # endif
- #endif
-
- except that still won't work if a system has no integral type
- with a size that is 32 bytes.
-
- Further, we need to know about PTRSIZE == sizeof(void *) and
- DOUBLESIZE == sizeof(double) if we really want to try to handle
- 32/64-bit combinations.
-
- For the moment, these are only mentioned here so metaconfig will
- construct Configure to figure out the various sizes.
+ There is no guarantee that there is *any* integral type with
+ exactly 32 bits. It is perfectly legal for a system to have
+ sizeof(short) == sizeof(int) == sizeof(long) == 8.
+
+ Similarly, there is no guarantee that I16 and U16 have exactly 16
+ bits.
+
+ For dealing with issues that may arise from various 32/64-bit
+ systems, we will ask Configure to check out
+ SHORTSIZE == sizeof(short)
+ INTSIZE == sizeof(int)
+ LONGSIZE == sizeof(long)
+ LONGLONGSIZE == sizeof(long long) (if HAS_LONG_LONG)
+ PTRSIZE == sizeof(void *)
+ DOUBLESIZE == sizeof(double)
+ LONG_DOUBLESIZE == sizeof(long double) (if HAS_LONG_DOUBLE).
+ Most of these are currently unused, but they are mentioned here so
+ metaconfig will include the appropriate tests in Configure and
+ we can then start to consider how best to deal with long long
+ variables.

+
+ExtUtils::Installed - Inventory management of installed modules
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use ExtUtils::Installed;
+ my ($inst) = ExtUtils::Installed->new();
+ my (@modules) = $inst->modules();
+ my (@missing) = $inst->validate("DBI");
+ my $all_files = $inst->files("DBI");
+ my $files_below_usr_local = $inst->files("DBI", "all", "/usr/local");
+ my $all_dirs = $inst->directories("DBI");
+ my $dirs_below_usr_local = $inst->directory_tree("DBI", "prog");
+ my $packlist = $inst->packlist("DBI");
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+ExtUtils::Installed provides a standard way to find out what core and module
+files have been installed. It uses the information stored in .packlist files
+created during installation to provide this information. In addition it
+provides facilities to classify the installed files and to extract directory
+information from the .packlist files.
+
+=head1 USAGE
+
+The new() function searches for all the installed .packlists on the system, and
+stores their contents. The .packlists can be queried with the functions
+described below.
+
+=head1 FUNCTIONS
+
+=over
+
+=item new()
+
+This takes no parameters, and searches for all the installed .packlists on the
+system. The packlists are read using the ExtUtils::packlist module.
+
+=item modules()
+
+This returns a list of the names of all the installed modules. The perl 'core'
+is given the special name 'Perl'.
+
+=item files()
+
+This takes one mandatory parameter, the name of a module. It returns a list of
+all the filenames from the package. To obtain a list of core perl files, use
+the module name 'Perl'. Additional parameters are allowed. The first is one
+of the strings "prog", "man" or "all", to select either just program files,
+just manual files or all files. The remaining parameters are a list of
+directories. The filenames returned will be restricted to those under the
+specified directories.
+
+=item directories()
+
+This takes one mandatory parameter, the name of a module. It returns a list of
+all the directories from the package. Additional parameters are allowed. The
+first is one of the strings "prog", "man" or "all", to select either just
+program directories, just manual directories or all directories. The remaining
+parameters are a list of directories. The directories returned will be
+restricted to those under the specified directories. This method returns only
+the leaf directories that contain files from the specified module.
+
+=item directory_tree()
+
+This is identical in operation to directory(), except that it includes all the
+intermediate directories back up to the specified directories.
+
+=item validate()
+
+This takes one mandatory parameter, the name of a module. It checks that all
+the files listed in the modules .packlist actually exist, and returns a list of
+any missing files. If an optional second argument which evaluates to true is
+given any missing files will be removed from the .packlist
+
+=item packlist()
+
+This returns the ExtUtils::Packlist object for the specified module.
+
+=item version()
+
+This returns the version number for the specified module.

+=head1 NAME
+
+ExtUtils::Packlist - manage .packlist files
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use ExtUtils::Packlist;
+ my ($pl) = ExtUtils::Packlist->new('.packlist');
+ $pl->read('/an/old/.packlist');
+ my @missing_files = $pl->validate();
+ $pl->write('/a/new/.packlist');
+
+ $pl->{'/some/file/name'}++;
+ or
+ $pl->{'/some/other/file/name'} = { type => 'file',
+ from => '/some/file' };
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+ExtUtils::Packlist provides a standard way to manage .packlist files.
+Functions are provided to read and write .packlist files. The original
+.packlist format is a simple list of absolute pathnames, one per line. In
+addition, this package supports an extended format, where as well as a filename
+each line may contain a list of attributes in the form of a space separated
+list of key=value pairs. This is used by the installperl script to
+differentiate between files and links, for example.
+
+=head1 USAGE
+
+The hash reference returned by the new() function can be used to examine and
+modify the contents of the .packlist. Items may be added/deleted from the
+.packlist by modifying the hash. If the value associated with a hash key is a
+scalar, the entry written to the .packlist by any subsequent write() will be a
+simple filename. If the value is a hash, the entry written will be the
+filename followed by the key=value pairs from the hash. Reading back the
+.packlist will recreate the original entries.
+
+=head1 FUNCTIONS
+
+=over
+
+=item new()
+
+This takes an optional parameter, the name of a .packlist. If the file exists,
+it will be opened and the contents of the file will be read. The new() method
+returns a reference to a hash. This hash holds an entry for each line in the
+.packlist. In the case of old-style .packlists, the value associated with each
+key is undef. In the case of new-style .packlists, the value associated with
+each key is a hash containing the key=value pairs following the filename in the
+.packlist.
+
+=item read()
+
+This takes an optional parameter, the name of the .packlist to be read. If
+no file is specified, the .packlist specified to new() will be read. If the
+.packlist does not exist, Carp::croak will be called.
+
+=item write()
+
+This takes an optional parameter, the name of the .packlist to be written. If
+no file is specified, the .packlist specified to new() will be overwritten.
+
+=item validate()
+
+This checks that every file listed in the .packlist actually exists. If an
+argument which evaluates to true is given, any missing files will be removed
+from the internal hash. The return value is a list of the missing files, which
+will be empty if they all exist.

-5.002, the name has been changed to VMS::Stdio, in order to conform

-extensions which provide added functionality have names whose parts
-begin with uppercase letters. In addition, the functions

-I/O operators, which do not retain the 'f' from corresponding
-C routine names.

-routine. This interface will be removed in a future release,
