[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

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

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.

targets to use the new installman script and to accomodate those who
don't want to install the man pages.

installman only if requested.

Configure
Updated to dist PL53.
Fix overlapping memcpy test.
Add check for ld. Use $cc instead, if on an ELF system.
With -d, don't reuse config.sh unless $myuname matches.
Warn more explicitly about changing compilers before reloading
old config.sh.
Detect Linux ELF format in nm scan.
Better detection of d_castneg. (ISC 4.1 was passing the test,
but couldn't cast in an argument list.)
Suggest -fpic for dynamic loading if you're using GNU CC under any
name.
No longer test for byacc, fmod, or drem, since they are not used.
Makefile.SH
Use $ld, not ld (only matters for SVR4)
Silence some byacc-related harmless error messages.
README
Suggest using -Dcc=gcc (or whatever).
Warn about reusing old config.sh. (The warning was already there
in 5.001; I've just expanded it a little.)
Warn against using GNU as and GNU ld on SunOS & Solaris.
config.H
config_h.SH
Updated to match Configure.
doio.c
Add socket includes.
ext/Fcntl/Fcntl.xs
Fix typo: s/SETFL/F_SETFL/;
handy.h
Check _G_HAVE_BOOL, not just if it's defined.
hints/dynix.sh
hints/hpux_9.sh
hints/linux.sh
hints/netbsd.sh
hints/titanos.sh
Updated. ELF on linux should probably work.
installperl
Install pod2html, pod2latex, and pod2man.
lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm
Updated to 4.091. (4.09 + a small writedoc() patch.)
myconfig
Now includes 'ld' command.
perl.c
Revised an #elif clause since Pyramid's cpp doesn't understand
#elif.
perl.h
Fix U_L, I_V, and I_32 cast macros to ensure that
the cast_ulong(), cast_iv(), and cast_i32() functions (if used)
are passed a double. In particular, the FIXSTATUS macros were
handing int's to U_L().
Remove unnecessary HAS_FMOD testing (See util.c).
proto.h
Remove my_fmod() prototype. (See util.c)
sv.h
Fix GV/CV typo.
util.c
Simplified cast_i32() and cast_iv() to mimic what *actually*
happens on a SPARC running SunOS 4.1.3. (Previously, they did
some complicated fmod() calculation. I've since discovered that's
not what happens on the SPARC.)
With this change, fmod() is no longer necessary. Hence my_fmod
is removed. This also means the HAS_FMOD and HAS_DREM tests are
no longer needed in Configure, so they are gone too.
vms/config.vms
Remove unnecessary HAS_FMOD and HAS_DREM defines.
x2p/Makefile.SH
Silence byacc-related things.

problems reported even after patches 0a through 0j
MakeMaker 4.06 allows you to build extensions away from the source
tree with either static or dynamic loading.
In a rare act of prescience, I've also fixed some un-reported bugs.
Specifically, there were several places where Configure said you could
specify things using ~name notation, but, in fact, you couldn't.
In detail, here's what's included:
Configure
Check I_SYS_TYPES for x2p/a2p.h
Improve and generalize $osvers detection for DEC Alpha
(now will work even for osvers > 3.)
No longer override hint-file setting of $archname.
Don't tell users ~name is ok for Dynamic loading file. It's not.
MANIFEST
MANIFEST.new
Updated.
Makefile.SH
Some trailing ' ' removed from lines.
New target lib/ExtUtils/Miniperl.pm built. This stashes away
miniperlmain.c in the library so new static extensions can be
built away from the source tree.
Minor cleanup.
U/Oldconfig.pat.2
This is a patch to be applied against dist-PL 50 to upgrade
the DEC OSF/1 version detection.
U/archlib.U
Preserve previous value for $archname. Otherwise this is
identical to the unit in dist-PL 50.
U/dlsrc.U
Users may not use ~name notation to find the dynamic loading
module. (Back in early alpha days they could, but that hasn't
worked since the DynaLoader module was introduced.
config.H
Updated.
config_h.SH
Updated.
hints/dec_osf.sh
Updated. Simplified. Don't use ld -no_archive (at least as
the default). It only worked because some versions *ignored* it.
hints/mpeix.sh
Add a few comments. I should have added more.
hints/next_3_0.sh
New hint file from Kevin White <klwhite@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu>
hints/ultrix_4.sh
Separate out flags not appropriate for gcc.
installperl
Install sperl.o.
lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm
Upgraded from 4.03 to 4.06. Many improvements. Now possible
to build and install new extensions outside the source tree,
for both static and dynamic loading.
lib/File/Path.pm
New. Creates or removes a series of directories
makeaperl
New utility to create a new perl binary from static extensions
minimod.PL
New. minimod.PL writes the contents of miniperlmain.c into the
module ExtUtils::Miniperl for later perusal (when the perl
source is deleted)
perl.c
ARCHLIB and PRIVLIB changed to ARCHLIB_EXP and PRIVLIB_EXP,
since perl is not prepared to deal with ~name expansion. The
_EXP variables are pre-expanded by Configure.
proto.h
NeXt 3.0 couldn't handle the #ifdef __attribute line.
It said 'illegal #ifdef'.
vms/config.vms
s/ARCHLIB/ARCHLIB_EXP/;
s/PRIVLIB/PRIVLIB_EXP/;
Add in I_SYS_STAT and I_SYS_TYPES, since the source now looks
for them.
vms/ext/MM_VMS.pm
New file.
x2p/a2p.h
Include <sys/types.h>

after patches 0a through 0i
Specifically, here's what's included:
Configure
Regenerated with metaconfig patchlevel 50. This changed
a variety of things, mostly related to selecting and changing
the installation prefix.
Handle csh, sed, and byacc no matter what the setting of
d_portable. (This was causing glob problems in patch.0i).
Set d_portable to default to 'y'. It doesn't matter anyway,
but gives people a warm fuzzy feeling.
Remove useless d_group and d_passwd tests.
Add check for <sys/stat.h>.
Improve & generalize AIX version detection.
Consider /opt/man/man1 as a possible place to install man pages.
Be a little more robust about OS version changes when deciding
if the output of uname -a has really changed.
MANIFEST
MANIFEST.new
Added hints/mpeix.sh.
README
Tell users the Configure defaults are probably right.
Makefile.SH
Better detection of whether user has byacc.
Use $(MAKE) instead of make.
U/Loc_sed.U
Works again with d_portable='define'.
U/Myinit.U
Set d_portable=define as default.
U/d_byacc.U
Detect whether user has byacc even if d_portable=define.
U/d_csh.U
Works again with d_portable='define'.
U/d_group.U
Empty file to avoid useless metaconfig test.
U/d_passwd.U
Empty file to avoid useless metaconfig test.
U/dist.patch
This file contains two minor updates to dist3 PL50 that were used
to generage Configure.
U/i_sysstat.U
New test. See if sys/stat.h is available.
config.H
Updated.
config_h.SH
Updated to metaconfig patchlevel 50.
ext/NDBM_File/Makefile.PL
ext/ODBM_File/Makefile.PL
Add -lucb for SVR4 systems.
handy.h
Protect agains g++-2.6.3, which predefines bool. g++ can be
used to compile an extension, but not perl itself. Still, the
extension will #include "perl.h", which eventually gets
"handy.h", which #define's bool. If this happens to you, add
-DHAS_BOOL to your ccflags in your extension, or else ensure that
_G_config.h is #include'd before perl.h. (_G_config.h will define
_G_HAVE_BOOL, if indeed your version of g++ has bool.)
hints/aix.sh
Updated. Handles AIX 3.2.x and 4.1. Comments included!
hints/hpux_9.sh
Updated.
hints/irix_4.sh
Updated. Includes comments for IRIX 4.0.4
hints/linux.sh
Updated. Beginnings of ELF support added, but completely
untested.
hints/mpeix.sh
New hint file.
hints/solaris_2.sh
Useless ccflags="$ccflags" line removed.
hints/svr4.sh
Updated.
installperl
Doesn't use Config anymore (it already reads config.sh
directly. That's probably backwards, but, oh well.
Install perl.exp for AIX.
lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm
Upgraded from 4.01 to 4.03.
makedepend.SH
Use $MAKE instead of plain make.
Index: op.c
Remove overlapping strcpy().
perl.h
Add test for <sys/stat.h>.
Delete unused VOIDSIG stuff.
Delete unused typedef struct lstring Lstring;
perl_exp.SH
Add safexxxx calls.
pp_sys.c
Delete wayward break in HAS_ALARM section.
proto.h
Change true and false (!) in function prototypes to please
g++-2.6.3, which has true and false built in. (See notes for
handy.h.)
Index: unixish.h
Long-overdue housekeeping.
HAS_GROUP and HAS_PASSWD are always defined.
util.c
Yet another (char*) cast for bcmp.
vms/config.vms
Changed comments to match unixish.h.
writemain.SH
Now correctly handles nested static extensions. Recent
MakeMakers have moved where they get built.
x2p/a2p.h
More definitions that will doubtless cause trouble somewhere
else.
x2p/a2py.c
x2p/walk.c
Remove unprotected char *strchr();

[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 :-(.
