For example, +in code such as + + @a = sort ($b, @a) + +the result would omit the value $b. This is now fixed. + +=item * + +The optimisation for unnecessary assignments introduced in 5.8.4 could give +spurious warnings. This has been fixed. + +=item * + +Perl should now correctly detect and read BOM-marked and (BOMless) UTF-16 +scripts of either endianness. + +=item * + +Creating a new thread when weak references exist was buggy, and would often +cause warnings at interpreter destruction time. The known bug is now fixed. + +=item * + +Several obscure bugs involving manipulating Unicode strings with C<substr> have +been fixed. + +=item * + +Previously if Perl's file globbing function encountered a directory that it +did not have permission to open it would return immediately, leading to +unexpected truncation of the list of results. This has been fixed, to be +consistent with Unix shells' globbing behaviour. + +=item * + +Thread creation time could vary wildly between identical runs. This was caused +by a poor hashing algorithm in the thread cloning routines, which has now +been fixed. + +=item * + +The internals of the ithreads implementation were not checking if OS-level +thread creation had failed. threads->create() now returns C<undef> in if +thread creation fails instead of crashing perl. + +=back + +=head1 New or Changed Diagnostics + +=over 4 + +=item * + +Perl -V has several improvements + +=over 4 + +=item * + +correctly outputs local patch names that contain embedded code snippets +or other characters that used to confuse it. + +=item * + +arguments to -V that look like regexps will give multiple lines of output. + +=item * + +a trailing colon suppresses the linefeed and ';' terminator, allowing +embedding of queries into shell commands. + +=item * + +a leading colon removes the 'name=' part of the response, allowing mapping to +any name. + +=back + +=item * + +When perl fails to find the specified script, it now outputs a second line +suggesting that the user use the C<-S> flag: + + $ perl5.8.5 missing.pl + Can't open perl script "missing.pl": No such file or directory. + Use -S to search $PATH for it. + +=back + +=head1 Changed Internals + +The Unicode character class files used by the regular expression engine are +now built at build time from the supplied Unicode consortium data files, +instead of being shipped prebuilt.
