[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.]

From: Robin Barker <rmb1@cise.npl.co.uk>
Files: installman installperl
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.

CORE LANGUAGE CHANGES
Subject: Bitwise op sign rationalization
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: Fix ++/-- after int conversion (e.g. 'printf "%d"')
From: Chip Salzenberg <chip@atlantic.net>
Files: pp.c pp_hot.c sv.c
This patch makes Perl correctly ignore SvIVX() if either
NOK or POK is true, since SvIVX() may be a truncated or
overflowed version of the real value.

# 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 <doughera@lafcol.lafayette.edu>
# 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}'

Fix installperl so that the -n option really only prints commands.
(previously, it would still do the mkdirs.)
an "ignore installed" option, so that it doesn't bother to check
to see if the target already exists (an optimization that I
*don't* want it to do when I do #1 above)

This commit just represents the minor differences between applying
the patch from 5.003_01 to 5.003_02 and the 5.003_02 release tarball.

[editor's note: changes seem to be mostly module updates,
documentation changes and some perl API macro additions]

Fix 2 installman bugs:
* If the old manpage existed, it was removed even if $pod2man failed.
* If installman aborted, an incomplete manpage was left in $MANPATH.

[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. :-)

Use File::Path::mkpath instead of our own makedir().
./perl installman --man1dir=man1 could lead to infinte recursion
in old makedir() routine. Use the standard library instead.

cd to your perl source directory, and type
patch -p1 -N < patch.2b1g
This patch is just my packaging of Tom's documentation patches
he released as patch.2b1g.

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.
Larry

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
Lafayette College Easton, PA 18042
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.
README
Updated.
README.vms
Fix perl5-porters subscription info.
config_H
Updated.
config_h.SH
Updated.
configpm
Embedded pod.
configure
GNU configure-like front end to metaconfig's Configure.
Only supports a few options.
doio.c
Updated to use new std stdio testing.
embed.h
Add new symbols for filtering.
global.sym
see embed.h.
gv.c
C<sub method;> patch from lwall.

New file to install pod/*.pod and lib/*.p(m|od) man pages.
installperl
Move installation of man pages over to installman script.
Install pod/*.pod files in $privlib/pod/.
Preserve timestamps on .a files.
makedepend.SH
Now includes . and .. in PATH to explicitly find cppstdin wrapper.
opcode.h
opcode.pl
shmwrite fix.
perl.c
Changed unofficial patchlevel message.
Included optional SITELIB directory.
perl.h
#include <memory.h>
cryptswitch gone/filters added.
EUNICE replaced by UNLINK_ALL_VERSIONS. Only matters for VMS.
perldoc.SH
New file.
pod/perl.pod
Describe where modpods are.
pp_ctl.c
sort bug fix from lwall.
pp_hot.c
csh glob bug fix from tchrist.
Sarathy's consolidated "tie" patch for NETaa13753 N 2 trey
pp_sys.c
Emulate flock with lockf, if possible.
Use new std stdio unit.
proto.h
Filters stuff.
prototype for unlnk() is only needed #if UNLINK_ALL_VERSIONS
sv.c
Sarathy's consolidated "tie" patch for NETaa13753 N 2 trey
Sarathy's consolidated patch for nested ties.
Use new std stdio unit.
t/comp/cpp.aux
New file. This only gets called if cppstdin is avaiable.
t/comp/cpp.t
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.
std stdio updates to match changes in perl sources.
add UNLINK_ALL_VERSIONS constant, but leave it #undef.
vms/ext/MM_VMS.pm
vms/ext/VMS/stdio/stdio.xs
vms/perlvms.pod
vms/vms.c
VMS updates from Charles Bailey.
x2p/Makefile.SH
Updated to match man page Configure questions.
Slight clean-up on .SH targets.
x2p/str.c
Use new std stdio unit.
