[editor's note: The changes between this and 5.004 were processed from
the m1t2 release, which was a bad idea as it was the _01 release which
had the final corrected attributions. The differences between the
various m*t* releases do that; I considered it most valuable just to
look at the _NN releases. Many patches have been separated out and/or
applied from the p5p archives nonetheless.]

Subject: [PATCH] for NETaa13787: %ENV=(); doesn't clear the environment
Perl maintains two representations of the environment:
(A) a hash named %ENV, used by the perl script
(B) a char** named environ, which is passed to child processes
Obviously, the intent is to keep tho two in sync.
This fails in two situations:
(1) A list assignment to %ENV clears (A) but not (B);
(2) Assigning to $0 has the side effect of deleting the key
NoNeSuCh form (B) but not from (A).
$ perl -e '%ENV=(); print "home\n" if exists $ENV{HOME}; exec "echo \$HOME";'
/Users/hansm
$ perl -e '$ENV{NoNeSuCh} = "foo"; $0 = "bar"; exec "echo \$NoNeSuCh";'
$ perl -e '$ENV{NoNeSuCh} = "foo"; exec "echo \$NoNeSuCh";'
foo
$
I've complained about rpoblem (1) before; and Larry assigned
it bug ID NETaa13787 when he entered it into DDTS.
The patch below attempts to remedy both problems, at least on
Unix platforms. I don't know how to handle the environment
on VMS and WIN32; my code simply calls DIE('unimplemented"),
which is honest but won't make users on those plaforms happy.

I got the new installhtml from CPAN
(TOMC/scripts/pod2html-v2.0beta.shar.gz)
I had problems getting the system call to splitpod at line 376 to work.
1. splitroot was not being found
2. splitroot was not finding its library
3. I changed htmlroot to podroot at line 175 to match the documentation.

Subject: Bug in debugger with import manipulations
Date: Mon, 23 Dec 1996 05:37:48 -0500 (EST)
From: Ilya Zakharevich <ilya@math.ohio-state.edu>
Files: pp_hot.c
Finally I traced why MakeMaker runs wrongly under debugger: debugger
function calling sequence was assuming that
GvCV(CvGV(cv)) == cv
for non-anonymous subs (ne END). MakeMaker managed to break it by
*A::B = \&C::D;
eval 'sub C::D {new one}';
After this CvGV(\&A::B) is *C::D, but &{*C::D} is the "new one".
Patch follows (note that in this case we do not sacrifice having a
subroutine name in debugger output ;-).
Enjoy,

Subject: Import and dynamic methods

From: Ilya Zakharevich <ilya@math.ohio-state.edu>
Files: gv.c hv.c sv.c
Here is the patch which corrects bad things which happens when you
import subroutines and otherwise manipulate the symbol tree.
I put forward the only chunk which may be controversal, since it may
have a minor performance penalty. It is independent of the others, so
it can be freely deleted.
The manipulations which correctly propagate to method calls:
a) Pruning globs: delete $B::{method}
b) Undefing subroutines: undef &B::method;
c) Importing: *B::method = \&mymethod;

I sent this patch before as a part of

patch. Now I separate it in the case it was tainted by environment:
Synopsis:
$a = <FH>;
does not work as expected if $a is magic (say, tied).

This patch was (mostly) posted already.
It fixes the bug:
pos $str
is reset to undef if
$str =~ /failing/g
fails.
Additionally, if fixes the hidded bit (=MGf_MINMATCH) surviving
setting
pos $str = ...

them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this

Subject: perl5.003_11, Should base use of gettimeofday on HAS_GETTIMEOFDAY, not I_SYS_TIME
I've been installing perl5.003_11 on a SCO system that has the TCP/IP runtime
installed but not the TCP/IP development system.
Unfortunately the <sys/time.h> include file is included in the TCP/IP runtime
while libsocket.a is in the development system.
This means that pp.c decides to use "gettimeofday" because <sys/time.h> is
present but I can't link the perl that gets compiled.
So, here's a patch to base the use of "gettimeofday" on "HAS_GETTIMEOFDAY"
instead of "I_SYS_TIME". I also took the liberty of removing the special
case for plan9 (I assume plan9 has <sys/time.h> but no gettimeofday. Am I
right?).

From: Chip Salzenberg <chip@atlantic.net>
Files: op.c opcode.pl pod/perlop.pod pod/perltoc.pod pp.c pp.h pp_hot.c proto.h sv.c t/op/bop.t
Make bitwise ops result in unsigned values, unless C<use
integer> is in effect. Includes initial support for UVs.
Subject: Defined scoping for C<my> in control structures
From: Chip Salzenberg <chip@atlantic.net>
Files: op.c perly.c perly.c.diff perly.h perly.y proto.h toke.c
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.

Subject: Re: pre extending hash? - need speed
The patch below (which is relative to perl5.001l) implements
"keys %hash = 50_000;" (or other integer-evaluable sizes) for
pre-sizing hashes. I've only moved the patch forward from
when I first did it. I'm sure the code in hv_ksplit could be
improved.

[editor's note: no patch file was found for this release, so no
fine-grained changes]
I can't find the password for our ftp server, so I had to drop it into
ftp://ftp.sems.com/pub/incoming/perl5.002b3.tar.gz, which is a drop
directory you can't ls.
The current plan is that Andy is gonna whack on this a little more, and
then release a gamma in a few days when he's happy with it. So don't get
carried away. This is now *late* beta.
In other words, have less than the appropriate amount of fun. :-)

If you're adventurous, have a look at
ftp://ftp.sems.com/pub/outgoing/perl5.0/perl5.002beta1.tar.gz
Many thanks to Andy for doing the integration.
Obviously, if you consult the bugs database, you'll note there are
still plenty of buglets that need fixing, and several enhancements that
I've intended to put in still haven't made it in (Hi, Tim and Ilya).
But I think it'll be pretty stable. And you can start to fiddle around
with prototypes (which are, of course, still totally undocumented).
Packrats, don't worry too much about readvertising this widely.
Nowadays we're on a T1 here, so our bandwidth is okay.
Have the appropriate amount of jollity.

To apply, change to your perl directory, run the command above, then
apply with
patch -p1 -N < thispatch.
This is a consolidation patch. It contains many of the most commonly
applied or agreed-to patches that have been circulating since
patch.1m.
It also changes the 'unofficial patchlevel' in perl.c.
There are some problems (see items marked with '***').
I will attempt to address those in a patch.1o in a few days.
This patch contains the following packages:
My Jumbo Configure patch vs. 1m, with subsequent patches 1, 2, and 3.
Mainly, this provides easier use of local libraries, documents
the installation process in a new INSTALL file, moves important
questions towards the beginning, and improves detection of
signal names (mostly for Linux).
xsubpp-1.922.
Patches from Larry:
eval "1" memory leak patch (as modified by GSAR to apply to 5.001m).
NETaa14551 Infinite loop in formats,
NETaa13729 scope.c patch (fixed problems on AIX and others)
NETaa14138 "substr() & s///" (pp_hot.c)

To apply, change to your perl directory, run the command above, then
apply with
patch -p1 -N < thispatch.
Highlights of this patch include:
1. Fixes for $sitelib, $d_stdio_ptr_lval, and $d_stdio_cnt_lval
when config.sh is re-used.
2. Move embed.h, keywords.h, and opcode.h dependencies to
a special regen_headers target that is ordinarily not used.
This is now analogous to the run_byacc target. As a cosmetic
side-effect, I transliterated embed_h.sh into embed.pl so that
it can run on non-unix systems as well.
3. Tests for gdbm_{sync,exists,setopt} in GDBM_File (needed for
Slackware 2.1).
For good measure, I've also thrown in the following patches I pulled
off the list, mostly unmodified from the originals.
1. Larry's "unofficial official" fix for the subroutine array context
problem.
2. Tim's __DATA__ patch. (I kept forgetting about this one.)
3. Malcom's USE_OP_MASK patch to pave the way for his Safe extension.
4. Spider's suggested renaming of regexec to pregexec and regcomp to
pregcomp to avoid conflicts with POSIX symbols on Digital Unix.
(I only added a brief explanatory comment to the relevant .c
files.)
5. Spider's installperl patch to avoid installing *.orig and and the
.exists files. (I changed this a little to include patch's ~
suffix, which is used on systems with short file names (in some
versions of patch)).
6. Raphael's "safe_unlink" patch to installperl, in case a copy
of perl is currently runniung.
7. xsubpp 1.9.
8. Tim's lib.pm module (with patched corrected spelling of 2nd :-).
9. Tim's Exporter module version patches.
10. Tim's MakeMaker patches for make test when LINKTYPE=static.
11. Randal's pod2html patches.
12. Spider's "picky compiler" patches for x2p/util.[ch]
13. Paul's updated source filtering patches.
Patch and enjoy. I hope nothing breaks :-).

To apply, change to your perl directory, run the commands above, then
apply with
patch -p1 -N < thispatch.
After you apply this patch, I would recommend:
rm config.sh
sh Configure [whatever options you use]
make depend
make
make test
Here are the highlights:
All pod documentation now installed, along with corresponding man
pages, if possible (Configure allows you to change this).
cppstdin no longer points back to the build directory. This
necessitated two changes to the test suite: comp/cpp.t is now a
front end that punts if cppstdin is not yet available (the old
perl4 trick doesn't work for perl5). The op/misc.t test
./perl -P -e 'use POSIX;' has been dropped since I couldn't think
of an elegant way to bypass it for systems that need the cppstdin
wrapper.
Grand autoload patch included (minus the installperl, lib/, and
ext/ changes). The lib/ changes are in patch.1g, and the
ext/ changes are in patch.1h.
Better detection and use of stdio variants, especially on SVR4.
Sarathy's consolidated patches (for ties) included.
New filter stuff included.
Three patches from Larry (gv.c, toke.c, pp_ctl.c)
Patch and enjoy,
Andy Dougherty doughera@lafcol.lafayette.edu
Dept. of Physics

Here's the file-by-file breakdown of what's included:
Changes.Conf
Document changes in the Configure & build process.
Configure
Upgrade to metaconfig PL55.
Add /opt hierarchy to paths searched for programs.
Tye McQueen's updated std stdio testing.
Prompting for installation info for perl module pages.
Add possible SITELIB to include site-specific include directories.
By default this is disabled, but it seemed a neat idea now that
the standard perl library is getting so big.
Check that the compiler chosen exists and actually supports the
options the user specified.
Correctly sort multiple shared library version numbers.
Use a compile & link test for gconvert(), dlopen(), and dlerror().
Do not include build directory name in cppstdin wrapper.
MANIFEST
Updated.
Makefile.SH
Reorganized a bit to support separate install.perl and install.man
targets to use the new installman script and to accomodate those who
don't want to install the man pages.
Organize cleanup of .SH files a little better.
No longer automatically make the pod/*.man files. This is done by
installman only if requested.
Include additional error messages and info for regenerating the
automatically maintained header files.
Add 'minitest' target.

perl.c
Changed unofficial patchlevel message.
Included optional SITELIB directory.
perl.h
#include <memory.h>

sv.c
Sarathy's consolidated "tie" patch for NETaa13753 N 2 trey
Sarathy's consolidated patch for nested ties.
Use new std stdio unit.

Calls cpp.aux test only if cppstdin is available.
t/op/misc.t
Drop
perl -P -e 'use POSIX;' test.
it couldn't work on systems without the cppstdin wrapper
installed, and is usually misleading when it fails anyway.
toke.c
filter stuff.
fix for NETaa13798 from lwall.
unixish.h
undef UNLINK_ALL_VERSIONS since it's irrelevant for unix.
util.c
s/EUNICE/UNLINK_ALL_VERSIONS/ for the unlnk() function.
vms/config.vms
VMS updates from Charles Bailey.

This is my patch patch.0n for perl5.000.
This _very_ small patch
1. updates the linux and dec_osf hints files,
2. adds sv_isobject to global.sym,
3. updates Configure to deal with recent Linux nm output, and
4. fixes the names in File::Path.
This patch addresses only Configure and build issues for which I have
tested solutions. It does nothing else. Maybe some of the other patches
floating around should be included. Maybe not. I'm afraid I just
don't have time to think about them now.
Unless something's broken, I hope not to issue any more patches :-)
(Yes, I've said that before, but this one's _really_ small, and linux
support was broken.:-) Thanks to Kenneth Albanowski for researching,
implementing, and testing the Linux patch.

[editor's note: this commit combines approximate 4 months of furious
releases of Andy Dougherty and Larry Wall - see pod/perlhist.pod for
details. Andy notes that;
Alas neither my "Irwin AccuTrack" nor my DC 600A quarter-inch cartridge
backup tapes from that era seem to be readable anymore. I guess 13 years
exceeds the shelf life for that backup technology :-(.
