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.
Subject: Make code match Camel II re: functions that use $_
From: Paul Marquess <pmarquess@bfsec.bt.co.uk>
Files: opcode.pl
Subject: Provide scalar context on left side of "->"
From: Chip Salzenberg <chip@atlantic.net>

Subject: Quote bearword package/handle FOO in "funcname FOO => 'bar'"
From: Chip Salzenberg <chip@atlantic.net>
Files: toke.c

[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. :-)

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.
Patch and enjoy,

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.
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)

version of 20 Sep 1995
Includes fix for NETaa14347 (32k limit in regex), and other
fixes.
ftp://ftp.perl.com/pub/perl/src/patches/debugger.patch,

NETaa14636 Jumbo DynaLoader patch for Perl5.001m, and
Additional patch for NETaa14636 Jumbo DynaLoader patch for Perl5.001m
version of 09 Oct 1995.
***This needs some additional parentheses.***
MakeMaker-5.00. Supercedes NETaa13540 (VMS MakeMaker patches).
(Updates minimod.PL as well.)
***This has a couple of minor problems.
pod2man is run even if it isn't available.
LD_RUN_PATH gets set to some mysterious values.***
NETaa14657 Paul Marquess Net::Ping patch. I've included
Net-Ping-1.00.
NETaa14661 Dean Roehrich DProf. Installed as ext/Devel/DProf.
Configure should pick this up automatically. (5 Apr 1995
version.)
NETaa13742 Jack Shirazi Socket in 5.001. I've also included
his socket.t test in t/lib/socket.t.
c2ph-1.7.
Dean's perlapi patches of Oct 12, 1995, which superceded those
of Oct 8, 1995. This is the one that did
mv perlapi.pid perlxs.pod.
NETaa14310 Tim Bunce A trivial patch for configpm (handy for shell scripts)
DB_File-1.0 patch from Paul Marquess (pmarquess@bfsec.bt.co.uk)

[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 :-(.
