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>

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
pos $str =

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 = ...

And *PLEASE* fix the Artistic License so it no longer has the bogus
"whomever" misdeclined in the nominative case:
under the copyright of this Package, but belong to whomever generated
them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this
It should obviously be "whoever".

Files: Configure config_H config_h.SH pp.c
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

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.

From: Chip Salzenberg <chip@atlantic.net>

[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.
Larry
