I think I have documented all the other cases where $_ defaulting works as well. p5p-msgid: <9611201404.AA12477@claudius.bfsec.bt.co.uk> OTHER CORE CHANGES Subject: Properly prototype safe{malloc,calloc,realloc,free}. From: Chip Salzenberg <chip@atlantic.net> Files: proto.h Subject: UnixWare 2.1 fix for perl5.003_08 - cope with fp->_cnt < -1, allow debugging Date: Wed, 20 Nov 1996 14:27:06 +0100 From: John Hughes <john@AtlanTech.COM> Files: sv.c UnixWare 2.1 has no fp->_base so most of the debugging stuff in sv_gets just core dumps. Also, for some unknown reason fp->_cnt is sometimes < -1, screwing up the initial SvGROW in svgets. Appart from that its io is std. p5p-msgid: <01BBD6EE.E915C860@malvinas.AtlanTech.COM> Subject: die -> croak Date: Thu, 21 Nov 1996 16:11:21 -0500 From: Gurusamy Sarathy <gsar@engin.umich.edu> Files: pp_ctl.c private-msgid: <199611212111.QAA17070@aatma.engin.umich.edu> Subject: Cleanup of {,un}pack('w').

Since _09 is going to be alpha anyway, I reiterate my question: Is there any reason to not include my hash/array performance patches in _09? Btw, here is the next performance patch. It makes PADTMP values stealable too. I do not do by setting TEMP flags on them, since it would be a very distributed patch, and it would break some places which check for TEMP for some other reasons (yes, I checked ;-). This patch decreases *twice* the memory usage of perl -e '$a = "a" x 1e6; 1' Enjoy, p5p-msgid: <199611260308.WAA02677@monk.mps.ohio-state.edu> Subject: Hash key sharing improvements from Ilya.

Nearly all of the changes are VMS-specific, and comprise miscellaneous bugfixes accumulated since 5.003_07, rather than any particular problem with 5.003_08. I'm posting them here since some of the patches change core files, and I'd like to insure that I haven't accidentally created problems for anyone else. With these and a couple of of the small patches already send to p5p, 5.003_08 builds clean and passes all tests under VMS. Thanks, Chip, for all the work. p5p-msgid: <1996Nov22.181631.1603238@hmivax.humgen.upenn.edu>

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 :-(. ]
