enabled via -DPERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT (all changes are noops
without that enabled):
- USE_THREADS now enables PERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT, so dTHR
is a noop; tests pass on Solaris; should be faster now!
- MULTIPLICITY has been tested with and without
PERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT on Solaris
- improved function database now merged with embed.pl
- everything except the varargs functions have foo(a,b,c) macros
to provide compatibility
- varargs functions default to compatibility variants that
get the context pointer using dTHX
- there should be almost no source compatibility issues as a
result of all this
- dl_foo.xs changes other than dl_dlopen.xs untested
- still needs documentation, fixups for win32 etc
Next step: migrate most non-mutex variables from perlvars.h
to intrpvar.h

pointer argument; builds/tests on Solaris, win32
hasn't been fixed up yet; proto.h, global.sym and
static function decls are now generated from a common
database in proto.pl; some inconsistently named
perl_foo() things are now Perl_foo(), compatibility
#defines provided; perl_foo() (lowercase 'p') reserved
for functions that take an explicit context argument;
next step: generate #define foo(a,b) Perl_foo(aTHX_ a,b)

avoid most uses of PL_na (which is much more inefficient than a
simple local); update docs to suit; PL_na now being thr->Tna may
be a minor compatibility issue for extensions--will require dTHR
outside of XSUBs (those get automatic dTHR)

(objpp.h is gone, embed.pl now does some of that); objXSUB.h
should soon be automated also; the global variables that
escaped the PL_foo conversion are now reined in; renamed
MAGIC in regcomp.h to REG_MAGIC to avoid collision with the
type of same name; duplicated lists of pp_things in various
places is now gone; result has only been tested on win32

GNU C's 'protoize' plus a few hand edits.
Will compile miniperl with gcc -x c++ (i.e. treat .c a C++ files)
Does not link seems gcc's C++ does not define a symbol for
const char foo[] = "....";

From: Tim Bunce <Tim.Bunce@ig.co.uk>

Subject: perldoc finds wrong pod2man
(from perldoc source)
# We must look both in @INC for library modules and in PATH
# for executables, like h2xs or perldoc itself.
Unfortunately, searching PATH for installed perl executables like
pod2man is INCORRECT. perldoc should start by searching the
directory it was executed from, which might not be in the PATH
at all.

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,

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 = ...

change. I think I have documented all the other cases where $_
defaulting works as well.

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.

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'

Subject: VMS patches post-5.003_08
Date: Fri, 22 Nov 1996 18:16:31 -0500 (EST)
From: Charles Bailey <bailey@hmivax.humgen.upenn.edu>
Files: lib/ExtUtils/MM_Unix.pm lib/ExtUtils/MM_VMS.pm lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm lib/File/Path.pm mg.c pp_ctl.c utils/h2xs.PL vms/config.vms vms/descrip.mms vms/gen_shrfls.pl vms/genconfig.pl vms/perlvms.pod vms/vms.c vms/vmsish.h
Here're diffs to bring a base 5.003_08 up to the current VMS working
sources. 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.

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
