powerunix
------------- Version 5.002 -------------

The  main enhancement to the Perl core was the addition of proto-
types.  Many of the modules that come with Perl have been  exten-
sively upgraded.

Other  than that, nearly all the changes for 5.002 were bug fixes
of one variety or another, so here's the bug list, along with the
"resolution"  for  each of them.  If you wish to correspond about
any of them, please include the bug number (if any).

Changes specific to the Configure and build process are described
at the bottom.

Added  APPLLIB_EXP  for  embedded  perl  library  support.  Files
patched: perl.c

Couldn't define autoloaded routine  by  assignment  to  typeglob.
Files patched: pp_hot.c sv.c

NETaa13525:  Tiny  patch  to  fix  installman -n From: Larry Wall
Files patched: installman

NETaa13525:   de-documented   Files    patched:    pod/perlop.pod
pod/perlre.pod

NETaa13525:  doc  changes Files patched: pod/perlop.pod pod/perl-
trap.pod

NETaa13525: perlxs  update  from  Dean  Roehrich  Files  patched:
pod/perlxs.pod

NETaa13525:  rename  powerunix to powerux Files patched: MANIFEST
hints/powerux.sh

NETaa13540: VMS uses CLK_TCK for HZ Files patched: pp_sys.c

NETaa13721: pad_findlex core dumps on bad CvOUTSIDE() From:  Carl
Witty Files patched: op.c sv.c toke.c
 Each  CV has a reference to the CV containing it lexically.  Un-
fortunately,
 it didn't reference-count this reference, so when the  outer  CV
was freed,
 we  ended  up  with a pointer to memory that got reused later as
some other kind
 of SV.

NETaa13721: warning suppression Files patched: toke.c
 (same)

NETaa13722: walk.c had inconsistent static declarations From: Tim
Bunce Files patched: x2p/walk.c
 Consolidated  the  various declarations and made them consistent
with
 the actual definitions.

NETaa13724: -MPackage=args patch From: Tim Bunce  Files  patched:
perl.c pod/perlrun.pod
 Added in the -MPackage=args patch too.

NETaa13729:  order-of-evaluation dependency in scope.c on leaving
REGCONTEXT From: "Jason Shirk" Files patched: scope.c
 Did

                 I32 delta = SSPOPINT;
                 savestack_ix -=  delta;   /*  regexp  must  have
croaked */

 instead.

NETaa13731:  couldn't  assign  external  lexical  array to itself
From: oneill@cs.sfu.ca Files patched: op.c
 The pad_findmy routine was only checking previous statements for
previous
 mention  of  external  lexicals,  so  the  fact that the current
statement
 already mentioned @list was not noted.  It  therefore  allocated
another
 reference  to the outside lexical, and this didn't compare equal
when
 the assigment parsing code was trying to determine whether there
was a
 common  variable  on either side of the equals.  Since it didn't
see the
 same variable, it thought it could avoid making  copies  of  the
values on
 the  stack  during list assignment.  Unfortunately, before using
those
 values, the list assignment has to zero out  the  target  array,
which
 destroys the values.

 The  fix  was to make pad_findmy search the current statement as
well.  This
 was actually a holdover from some old code that  was  trying  to
delay
 introduction  of  "my" variables until the next statement.  This
is now
 done with a different mechanism, so the fix should not adversely
affect
 that.

NETaa13733:  s///  doesn't  free  old string when using copy mode
From: Larry Wall Files patched: pp_ctl.c pp_hot.c
 When I removed the use of sv_replace(), I simply forgot to  free
the old char*.

NETaa13736:   closures  leaked  memory  From:  Carl  Witty  Files
patched: op.c pp.c
 This is a specific example of a more general bug, fixed  as  NE-
Taa13760, having
 to do with reference counts on comppads.

NETaa13739:  XSUB interface caches gimme in case XSUB clobbers it
From: Dean Roehrich Files patched: pp_hot.c
 Applied suggest patch.  Also deleted second gimme declaration as
redundant.

NETaa13760: comppad reference counts were inconsistent From: Lar-
ry Wall Files patched: op.c perl.c pp_ctl.c toke.c
 All official references to comppads are supposed to  be  through
compcv now,
 but  the  transformation  was  not complete, resulting in memory
leakage.

NETaa13761: sv_2pv() wrongly preferred IV to NV when SV was read-
only From: "Jack R. Lawler" Files patched: sv.c
 Okay,  I understand how this one happened.  This is a case where
a
 beneficial fix uncovered a bug elsewhere.  I  changed  the  con-
stant
 folder  to prefer integer results over double if the numbers are
the
 same.  In this case, they aren't, but it leaves the integer val-
ue there
 anyway  because  the storage is already allocated for it, and it
*might*
 be used in an integer context.  And since it's producing a  con-
stant, it
 sets  READONLY.   Unfortunately,  sv_2pv() bogusly preferred the
integer
 value to the double when READONLY was set.  This never showed up
if you
 just said

     print 1.4142135623731;

 because in that case, there was already a string value.


NETaa13772:  shmwrite core dumps consistently From: Gabe Schaffer
Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl
 The shmwrite operator is a list operator but neglected to push a
stack
 mark beforehand, because an 'm' was missing from opcode.pl.

NETaa13773: $. was misdocumented as read-only.  From: Inaba Hiro-
to Files patched: pod/perlvar.pod
     <1.array-element-read-only>
     % perl -le '$,=", "; $#w=5; for (@w) { $_=1; } print @w'
     Modification of a read-only value attempted at -e line 1.
     % perl4 -le '$,=", "; $#w=5; for (@w) { $_=1; } print @w'
     1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1

 This one may stay the way it is for performance reasons.

     <2.begin-local-RS>
     % cat abc
     a
     b
     c
     % perl -e 'BEGIN { local $/ = ""; } print "$.:$_" while <>;'
abc
     1:a
     b
     c
     % perl -e '{ local $/ = ""; } print "$.:$_" while <>;' abc
     1:a
     2:b
     3:c

 $/ wasn't initialized early enough, so local set it back to per-
manently
 undefined on exit from the block.

     <3.grep-x0-bug>
     % perl -le 'print grep(/^-/ ? ($x=$_) x 0 :  1,  "a",  "-b",
"c");'
     a

     %  perl4  -le 'print grep(/^-/ ? ($x=$_) x 0 : 1, "a", "-b",
"c");'
     ac

 An extra mark was left on the stack if  (('x')  x  $repeat)  was
used in a scalar
 context.

     <4.input-lineno-assign>
     #  perl -w does not complain about assignment to $. (Is this
just a feature?)
     # perlvar.pod says "This variable should be considered read-
only."
     % cat abc
     a
     b
     c
     % perl -wnle '$. = 10 if $. == 2; print "$.:$_"' abc
     1:a
     10:b
     11:c

 Fixed doc.

     <5.local-soft-ref.bug>
     % perl -e 'local ${"a"}=1;'
     zsh: 529 segmentation fault  perl -e 'local ${"a"}=1;'

 Now says
     Can't localize a reference at -e line 1.

     <6.package-readline>
     %  perl  -e  'package foo; sub foo { 1; } package main; $_ =
foo::foo(); print'
     1
     % perl -e '
       package readline; sub foo { 1; } package main; $_ =  read-
line::foo(); print'
     Undefined subroutine &main::foo called at -e line 1.
     % perl -e '
       package readline; sub foo { 1; } package main; $_ = &read-
line::foo(); print'
     1

 Now treats foo::bar correctly even if foo is a keyword.

     <7.page-head-set-to-null-string>
     % cat page-head
     #From: russell@ccu1.auckland.ac.nz (Russell Fulton)
     #Newsgroups: comp.lang.perl
     #Subject: This script causes Perl 5.00 to sementation fault
     #Date: 15 Nov 1994 00:11:37 GMT
     #Message-ID: <3a8ubp$jrj@net.auckland.ac.nz>

     select((select(t),  $^='')[0]);  #this is the  critical
line
     $a = 'a';
     write ;
     exit;

     format STDOUT =
     @<<<<<<
     $a
     .

     % perl page-head
     zsh: 1799 segmentation fault  perl /tmp/page-head

 Now says
     Undefined top format "main::" called at ./try line 11.

     <8.sub-as-index>
     # parser bug?
     % perl -le 'sub foo {0}; $x[0]=0;$x[foo]<=0'
     Unterminated <> operator at -e line 1.
     % perl -le 'sub foo {0}; $x[0]=0;$x[foo()]<=0'

 A right square bracket now forces expectation of an operator.

     <9.unary-minus-to-regexp-var>
     % cat minus-reg
     #From: Michael Cook <mcook@cognex.com>
     #Newsgroups: comp.lang.perl

     #Message-ID: <MCOOK.95Feb1103125@erawan.cognex.com>

     $_ = "123";
     /+/;
     print $&, "0;
     print -$&, "0;
     print 0-$&, "0;

     % perl minus-reg
     123
     123
     -123

 Apparently already fixed in my copy.

     <10.vec-segv>
     % cat vec-bug
     ## Offset values are changed for my machine.

     #When the offset values are one less, all's well:

     #vec($a, 42812, 16) = 1;  # ok

     #Interestingly, this is ok for all high values of N:
     #$N=1000000; vec($a, $N, 8) = 1;

     % perl vec-bug
     zsh: 1806 segmentation fault  perl vec-bug

 Can't reproduce this one.


NETaa13773: $/ not correctly localized in  BEGIN  Files  patched:
perl.c
 (same)

NETaa13773:  foo::bar  was  misparsed  if foo was a reserved word
Files patched: toke.c toke.c
 (same)

NETaa13773: right square bracket didn't force expectation of  op-
erator Files patched: toke.c
 (same)

NETaa13773: scalar ((x) x $repeat) left stack mark Files patched:
op.c
 (same)

NETaa13778: -w coredumps on <$> From: Hans Mulder Files  patched:
pp_hot.c toke.c
 Now  produces  suggested error message.  Also installed guard in
warning code
 that coredumped.

NETaa13779: foreach didn't use  savestack  mechanism  From:  Hans
Mulder Files patched: cop.h pp_ctl.c
 The  foreach mechanism saved the old scalar value on the context
stack
 rather than the savestack.  It could  consequently  get  out  of
sync if
 unexpectedly unwound.

NETaa13785:  GIMME  sometimes used wrong context frame From: Greg
Earle Files patched: embed.h global.sym op.h pp_ctl.c proto.h
 The expression inside the return was taking its context from the
immediately
 surrounding  block rather than the innermost surrounding subrou-
tine call.

NETaa13797: could modify sv_undef through auto-vivification From:
Ilya Zakharevich Files patched: pp.c
 Inserted the missing check for readonly values on auto-vivifica-
tion.

NETaa13798: if (...) {print} treats print as quoted  From:  Larry
Wall Files patched: toke.c
 The  trailing paren of the condition was setting expectations to
XOPERATOR
 rather than XBLOCK, so it was being treated like ${print}.

NETaa13926: commonality was not  detected  in  assignments  using
COND_EXPR From: Mark Hanson Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl
 The  assignment  compiler didn't check the 2nd and 3rd args of a
?:
 for commonality.  It still doesn't, but I made ?: into  a  "dan-
gerous"
 operator so it is forced to treat it as common.

NETaa13957:  was  marking  the PUSHMARK as modifiable rather than
the arg From: David Couture Files patched: op.c sv.c
 It was marking the PUSHMARK as modifiable rather than the arg.

NETaa13962: documentation of behavior of scalar <*>  was  unclear
From: Tom Christiansen Files patched: pod/perlop.pod
 Added the following to perlop:

 A  glob only evaluates its (embedded) argument when it is start-
ing a new
 list.  All values must be read before it will start over.  In  a
list
 context this isn't important, because you automatically get them
all
 anyway.  In a scalar context, however, the operator returns  the
next value
 each time it is called, or a FALSE value if you've just run out.
Again,
 FALSE is returned only once.  So if you're  expecting  a  single
value from
 a glob, it is much better to say

     ($file) = <blurch*>;

 than

     $file = <blurch*>;

 because  the  latter will alternate between returning a filename
and
 returning FALSE.


NETaa13986: split ignored  /m  pattern  modifier  From:  Winfried
Koenig Files patched: pp.c
 Fixed to work like m// and s///.

NETaa13992: regexp comments not seen after + in non-extended reg-
exp From: Mark Knutsen Files patched: regcomp.c
 The code to skip regexp comments was guarded  by  a  conditional
that only
 let it work when /x was in effect.

NETaa14014: use subs should not count as definition, only as dec-
laration From: Keith Thompson Files patched: sv.c
 On *foo = bar, doesn't set GVf_IMPORTED if foo and  bar  are  in
same package.

NETaa14021:  sv_inc and sv_dec "upgraded" magical SV to non-magi-
cal From: Paul A Sand Also: Andreas Koenig Files patched: sv.c
 The sv_inc() and sv_dec() routines "upgraded" null  magical  SVs
to non-magical.

NETaa14086:  require  should check tainting From: Karl Simon Berg
Files patched: pp_ctl.c
 Since we shouldn't allow tainted requires anyway, it now says:

   Insecure dependency in require while running with -T switch at
tst.pl line 1.

NETaa14104: negation fails on magical variables like $1 From: tim
Files patched: pp.c
 Negation was failing on magical values like $1.  It was  testing
the wrong
 bits  and  also  failed to provide a final "else" if none of the
bits matched.

NETaa14107: deep sort return leaked contexts From:  Quentin  Fen-
nessy Files patched: pp_ctl.c
 Needed to call dounwind() appropriately.

NETaa14129:  attempt to localize via a reference core dumps From:
Michele Sardo Files patched: op.c pod/perldiag.pod
 Now produces an error "Can't localize a reference", with  expla-
nation in
 perldiag.

NETaa14138:  substr()  and  s/// can cause core dump From: Andrew
Vignaux Files patched: pp_hot.c
 Forgot to call SvOOK_off() on the SV before freeing its  string.

NETaa14145:  ${@INC}[0] dumped core in debugger From: Hans Mulder
Files patched: sv.c
 Now croaks "Bizarre copy of ARRAY in block exit", which is  bet-
ter than
 a core dump.  The fact that ${@INC}[0] means $INC[0] outside the
debugger
 is a different bug.

NETaa14147: bitwise assignment ops wipe out byte of target string
From: Jim Richardson Files patched: doop.c
 The  code was assuming that the target was not either of the two
operands,
 which is false for an assignment operator.

NETaa14153: lexing of lexicals in patterns  fooled  by  character
class From: Dave Bianchi Files patched: toke.c
 It never called the dwimmer, which is how it fooled it.

NETaa14154: allowed autoloaded methods by recognizing sub method;
declaration From: Larry Wall Files patched: gv.c
 Made sub method declaration sufficient for  autoloader  to  stop
searching on.

NETaa14156: shouldn't optimize block scope on tainting From: Pete
Peterson Files patched: op.c toke.c
 I totally disabled the block  scope  optimization  when  running
tainted.

NETaa14157: -T and -B only allowed 1/30 "odd" characters--changed
to 1/3 From: Tor Lillqvist Files patched: pp_sys.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14160: deref of null symbol should produce null  list  From:
Jared Rhine Files patched: pp_hot.c
 It didn't check for list context before returning undef.

NETaa14162:  POSIX::gensym  now  returns a symbol reference From:
Josh   N.   Pritikin   Also:    Tim    Bunce    Files    patched:
ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14164: POSIX autoloader now distinguishes non-constant "con-
stants"  From:  Tim  Bunce  <Tim.Bunce@ig.co.uk>  Files  patched:
ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs
 The  .xs file now distinguishes non-constant "constants" by set-
ting EAGAIN.
 This will also let us use #ifdef within the .xs file to  de-con-
stantify
 any  other  macros  that happen not to be constants even if they
don't use
 an argument.

NETaa14166: missing semicolon after "my" induces core dump  From:
Thomas Kofler Files patched: toke.c
 The parser was left thinking it was still processing a "my", and
flubbed.
 I made it wipe out the "in_my" variable on a syntax error.

NETaa14166: missing semicolon after "my" induces core dump" Files
patched: toke.c
 (same)

NETaa14206: can now use English and strict at the same time From:
Andrew Wilcox Files patched: sv.c
 It now counts imported symbols as okay under "use strict".

NETaa14206: can now use English and strict at the same time Files
patched: gv.c pod/perldiag.pod
 (same)

NETaa14265:  elseif  now produces severe warning From: Yutao Feng
Files patched: pod/perldiag.pod toke.c
 Now complains explicitly about "elseif".

NETaa14279: list assignment propagated taintedness to independent
scalars From: Tim Freeman Files patched: pp_hot.c
 List  assignment  needed  to be modified so that tainting didn't
propagate
 between independent scalar values.

NETaa14312: undef in @EXPORTS core  dumps  From:  William  Setzer
Files patched: lib/Exporter.pm
 Now says:

     Unable  to  create  sub  named "t::" at lib/Exporter.pm line
159.
     Illegal null symbol in @t::EXPORT at -e line 1
     BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.


NETaa14312: undef in @EXPORTS core dumps Files patched: pod/perl-
diag.pod sv.c
 (same)

NETaa14321: literal @array check shouldn't happen inside embedded
expressions From: Mark H. Nodine Files patched: toke.c
 The general solution to this is to disable  the  literal  @array
check within
 any  embedded expression.  For instance, this also failed bogus-
ly:

     print "$foo{@foo}";

 The reason fixing this also fixes the s///e problem is that  the
lexer
 effectively  puts the RHS into a do {} block, making the expres-
sion
 embedded within curlies, as far as the  error  message  is  con-
cerned.

NETaa14322:  now  localizes $! during POSIX::AUTOLOAD From: Larry
Wall Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm
 Added local $! = 0.

NETaa14324: defined() causes spurious sub  existence  From:  "An-
dreas Koenig" Files patched: op.c pp.c
 It called pp_rv2cv which wrongly assumed it could add any sub it
referenced.

NETaa14336: use Module () forces  import  of  nothing  From:  Tim
Bunce Files patched: op.c
 use Module () now refrains from calling import at all.

NETaa14353:  added  special  HE  allocator From: Larry Wall Files
patched: global.sym

NETaa14353: added special HE allocator Files patched: hv.c perl.h

NETaa14353:  array  extension now converts old memory to SV stor-
age.  Files patched: av.c av.h sv.c

NETaa14353: hashes now convert old storage into SV arenas.  Files
patched: global.sym

NETaa14353: hashes now convert old storage into SV arenas.  Files

 Subject: Re: Jumbo Configure patch vs. 1m.
 Date: Thu, 28 Sep 95 17:18:54 -0700
 From: lwall@scalpel.netlabs.com (Larry Wall)

 : No.  Larry's currently got the patch pumpkin for all such core
perl topics.

 I dunno whether you should let me have the patch pumpkin or not.
To fix
 a Sev 2 I just hacked in rudimentary prototypes.  :-)

 We  can  now define true unary subroutines, as well as argument-
less
 subroutines:

     sub baz () { 12; }            # Must not have argument
     sub bar ($) { $_[0] * 7 }          # Must have  exactly  one
argument
     sub foo ($@) { print "@_0 }   # Must have at least one argu-
ment
     foo bar baz / 2 || "oops", "is the answer";

 This prints "42 is the answer" on my machine.  That is, it's the
same as

     foo( bar( baz() / 2) || "oops", "is the answer");

 Attempting to compile

     foo;

 results in

     Too few arguments for main::foo at ./try line 8, near "foo;"

 Compiling

     bar 1,2,3;

 results in

     Too many arguments for  main::bar  at  ./try  line  8,  near
"foo;"

 But

     @array = ('a','b','c');
     foo @array, @array;

 prints  "3  a  b c" because the $ puts the first arg of foo into
scalar context.

 The main win at this point is that we can say

     sub AAA () { 1; }
     sub BBB () { 2; }

 and the user can say AAA + BBB and get 3.

 I'm not quite sure how this interacts with  autoloading  though.
I fear
 POSIX.pm will need to say

     sub E2BIG ();
     sub EACCES ();
     sub EAGAIN ();
     sub EBADF ();
     sub EBUSY ();
     ...
     sub _SC_STREAM_MAX ();
     sub _SC_TZNAME_MAX ();
     sub _SC_VERSION ();

 unless  we  can  figure out how to efficiently declare a default
prototype
 at import time.  Meaning, not using eval.  Currently

     *foo = bar;

 (the ordinary import mechanism) implicitly stubs  &bar  with  no
prototype if
 &bar is not yet declared.  It's almost like you want an AUTOPRO-
TO to
 go with your AUTOLOAD.

 Another thing to rub one's 5 o'clock shadow over is that there's
no way
 to apply a prototype to a method call at compile time.

 And no, I don't want to have the

     sub howabout ($formal, @arguments) { ... }

 argument right now.

NETaa14422:  couldn't  take  reference  of  a prototyped function
Files patched: op.c
 (same)

NETaa14423: use didn't allow expressions  involving  the  scratch
pad  From:  Graham  Barr Files patched: op.c perly.c perly.c.diff
perly.y proto.h vms/perly_c.vms
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14444:  lexical  scalar  didn't  autovivify  From:  Gurusamy
Sarathy Files patched: op.c pp_hot.c
 It didn't have code in pp_padsv to do the right thing.

NETaa14448:  caller  could  dump core when used within an eval or
require From: Danny R. Faught Files patched: pp_ctl.c
 caller() was incorrectly assuming the context stack contained  a
subroutine
 context when it in fact contained an eval context.

NETaa14451:  improved  error message on bad pipe filehandle From:
Danny R. Faught Files patched: pp_sys.c
 Now says the slightly more informative

     Can't use an undefined  value  as  filehandle  reference  at
./try line 3.

NETaa14462:  pp_dbstate had a scope leakage on recursion suppres-
sion From: Tim Bunce Files patched: pp_ctl.c
 Swapped the code in question around.

NETaa14482: sv_unref freed ref prematurely  at  times  From:  Gu-
rusamy Sarathy Files patched: sv.c
 Made sv_unref() mortalize rather than free the old reference.

NETaa14484:  appending  string  to array produced bizarre results
From: Greg Ward Also: Malcolm Beattie Files patched: pp_hot.c
 Will now say, "Can't coerce ARRAY to string".

NETaa14525: assignment to globs didn't reset them correctly From:
Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: sv.c
 Applied parts of patch not overridden by subsequent patch.

NETaa14529:  a partially matching subpattern could spoof infinity
detector From: Wayne Berke Files patched: regexec.c
 A partial match on a subpattern could fool the infinite  regress
detector
 into thinking progress had been made.
 The  previous workaround prevented another bug (NETaa14529) from
being fixed,
 so I've backed it out.  I'll need to think more about how to de-
tect failure
 to progress.  I'm still hopeful it's not equivalent to the halt-
ing problem.

NETaa14535: patches from Gurusamy Sarathy From: Gurusamy  Sarathy
Files patched: op.c pp.c pp_hot.c regexec.c sv.c toke.c
 Applied most recent suggested patches.

NETaa14537: select() can return too soon From: Matt Kimball Also:
Andreas Gustafsson Files patched: pp_sys.c

NETaa14538: method calls were treated like do {} under loop modi-
fiers From: Ilya Zakharevich Files patched: perly.c perly.y
 Needed to take the OPf_SPECIAL flag off of entersubs from method
reductions.
 (It was probably a cut-and-paste error from long ago.)

NETaa14540: foreach (@array) no  longer  does  extra  stack  copy
From: darrinm@lmc.com Files patched: Todo op.c pp_ctl.c pp_hot.c
 Fixed by doing the foreach(@array) optimization, so it iterates
 directly  through  the  array, and can detect the implicit shift
from
 referencing <>.

NETaa14541: new version of perlbug From: Kenneth Albanowski Files
patched: README pod/perl.pod utils/perlbug.PL
 Brought it up to version 1.09.

NETaa14541: perlbug 1.11 Files patched: utils/perlbug.PL

NETaa14548:  magic  sets  didn't  check  private OK bits From: W.
Bradley Rubenstein Files patched: mg.c
 The magic code was getting mixed up between private  and  public
POK bits.

NETaa14550:  made  ~ magic magical From: Tim Bunce Files patched:
sv.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14551: humongous header causes infinite loop in format From:
Grace Lee Files patched: pp_sys.c
 Needed to check for page exhaustion after doing top-of-form.

NETaa14558:  attempt  to  call  undefined  top format core dumped
From:  Hallvard  B  Furuseth  Files   patched:   pod/perldiag.pod
pp_sys.c
 Now  issues an error on attempts to call a non-existent top for-
mat.

NETaa14561: Gurusamy  Sarathy's  G_KEEPERR  patch  From:  Andreas
Koenig  Also:  Gurusamy  Sarathy  Also:  Tim Bunce Files patched:
cop.h interp.sym perl.c perl.h pp_ctl.c pp_sys.c sv.c toke.c
 Applied latest patch.

NETaa14581: shouldn't execute BEGIN when  there  are  compilation
errors From: Rickard Westman Files patched: op.c
 Perl  should  not try to execute BEGIN and END blocks if there's
been a
 compilation error.

NETaa14582: got SEGV sorting sparse array From: Rick Pluta  Files
patched: pp_ctl.c
 Now weeds out undefined values much like Perl 4 did.
 Now sorts undefined values to the front.

NETaa14582: sort was letting unsortable values through to compar-
ison routine Files patched: pp_ctl.c
 (same)

NETaa14585: globs in pad space weren't properly cleaned up  From:
Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: op.c pp.c pp_hot.c sv.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14614:  now  does  dbmopen with perl_eval_sv() From: The Man
Files patched: perl.c pp_sys.c proto.h
 dbmopen now invokes perl_eval_sv(), which  should  handle  error
conditions
 better.

NETaa14618:  exists doesn't work in GDBM_File From: Andrew Wilcox
Files patched: ext/GDBM_File/GDBM_File.xs
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14619: tied() From: Larry Wall  Also:  Paul  Marquess  Files

naLoader/dl_dlopen.xs   ext/DynaLoader/dl_hpux.xs   ext/DynaLoad-
er/dl_next.xs ext/DynaLoader/dl_vms.xs ext/DynaLoader/dlutils.c
 Applied suggested patches.

NETaa14637:  checkcomma  routine  was  stupid  about bareword sub
calls From: Tim Bunce <Tim.Bunce@ig.co.uk> Files patched: toke.c
 The checkcomma routine was stupid about bareword sub calls.

NETaa14639: (?i) didn't reset on runtime patterns From:  Mark  A.
Scheel Files patched: op.h pp_ctl.c toke.c
 It  didn't  distinguish between permanent flags outside the pat-
tern and
 temporary flags within the pattern.

NETaa14649: selecting  anonymous  globs  dumps  core  From:  Chip
Salzenberg  Files patched: cop.h doio.c embed.h global.sym perl.c
pp_sys.c proto.h
 Applied suggested patch, but reversed the increment  and  decre-
ment to avoid
 decrementing and freeing what we're going to increment.

NETaa14655:  $? returned negative value on AIX From: Kim Frutiger
Also: Stephen D. Lee Files patched: pp_sys.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14668: {2,} could match once From: Hugo van der Sanden Files
patched: regexec.c
 When an internal pattern failed a conjecture, it didn't back off
on the
 number of times it thought it had matched.

NETaa14673: open $undefined dumped core From:  Samuli  K{rkk{inen
Files patched: pp_sys.c
 pp_open() didn't check its argument for globness.

NETaa14683: stringifies were running pad out of space From: Robin
Barker Files patched: op.h toke.c
 Increased PADOFFSET to a U32, and made  lexer  not  put  double-
quoted strings
 inside OP_STRINGIFY unless they really needed it.

NETaa14689:  shouldn't have . in @INC when tainting From: William
R. Somsky Files patched: perl.c
 Now does not put . into @INC when tainting.   It  may  still  be
added with a

     use lib ".";

 or, to put it at the end,

     BEGIN { push(@INC, ".") }

 but  this  is not recommended unless a chdir to a known location
has been done
 first.

NETaa14690: values inside tainted SVs were ignored  From:  "James
M. Stern" Files patched: pp.c pp_ctl.c
 It was assuming that a tainted value was a string.

NETaa14692:  format  name required qualification under use strict
From: Tom Christiansen Files patched: gv.c
 Now treats format names the same as subroutine names.

NETaa14695: added simple regexp caching  From:  John  Rowe  Files
patched: pp_ctl.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14697:  regexp  comments  were  sometimes wrongly treated as
literal text From: Tom Christiansen Files patched: regcomp.c
 The literal-character grabber didn't know  about  extended  com-
ments.
 N.B.  '#'  is treated as a comment character whenever the /x op-
tion is
 used now, so you can't include '#' as a  simple  literal  in  /x
regexps.

 (By  the way, Tom, the boxed form of quoting in the previous en-
closure is
 exceeding antisocial when you want to extract the code from it.)

NETaa14704: closure got wrong outer scope if outer sub was prede-
clared From: Marc Paquette Files patched: op.c
 The outer scope of the anonymous sub was set to the stub  rather
than to
 the  actual  subroutine.  I kludged it by making the outer scope
of the
 stub be the actual subroutine, if anything is depending  on  the
stub.

NETaa14705:  $foo  .=  $foo did free memory read From: Gerd Knops
Files patched: sv.c
 Now modifies address to copy if it was reallocated.

NETaa14709: Chip's FileHandle stuff From: Larry Wall  Also:  Chip
Salzenberg  Files  patched: MANIFEST ext/FileHandle/FileHandle.pm
ext/FileHandle/FileHandle.xs           ext/FileHandle/Makefile.PL
ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm     ext/POSIX/POSIX.pod     ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs
lib/FileCache.pm lib/Symbol.pm t/lib/filehand.t t/lib/posix.t
 Applied suggested patches.

NETaa14711: added (&) and (*) prototypes for blocks  and  symbols
From:  Kenneth Albanowski Files patched: Makefile.SH op.c perly.c
perly.h perly.y toke.c
 & now means that it must have an anonymous sub as that argument.
If
 it's  the first argument, the sub may be specified as a block in
the
 indirect object slot, much like grep or sort, which have  proto-
types of (&@).

 Also added * so you can do things like

     sub myopen (*;$);

     myopen(FOO, $filename);

NETaa14713:  setuid  FROM  root  now  defaults to not do tainting
From: Tony Camas Files patched: mg.c perl.c pp_hot.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14714: duplicate magics could be added to an SV  From:  Yary
Hluchan Files patched: sv.c sv.c
 The  sv_magic()  routine  didn't properly check to see if it al-
ready had a
 magic of that type.  Ordinarily it would have, but it was called
during
 mg_get(), which forces the magic flags off temporarily.

NETaa14721: sub defined during erroneous do-FILE caused core dump
From: David Campbell Files patched: op.c
 Fixed the seg fault.  I couldn't reproduce the return problem.

NETaa14734: ref should never return undef From: Dale  Amon  Files
patched: pp.c t/op/overload.t
 Now returns null string.

NETaa14751: slice of undefs now returns null list From: Tim Bunce
Files patched: pp.c pp_hot.c
 Null list clobberation is now done in lslice, not aassign.

NETaa14789: select coredumped on Linux From: Ulrich Kunitz  Files
patched: pp_sys.c
 Applied suggested patches, more or less.

NETaa14789: straightened out ins and out of duping Files patched:
lib/IPC/Open3.pm
 (same)

NETaa14791: implemented internal SUPER class From: Nick  Ing-Sim-
mons Also: Dean Roehrich Files patched: gv.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14845:  s///  didn't handle offset strings From: Ken MacLeod
Files patched: pp_ctl.c
 Needed a call to SvOOK_off(f) in pp_substcont().

NETaa14851: Use of << to mean <<"" is deprecated From: Larry Wall
Files patched: toke.c

NETaa14865:  added  HINT_BLOCK_SCOPE  to  "elsif" From: Jim Avera
Files patched: perly.y
 Needed to set HINT_BLOCK_SCOPE on  "elsif"  to  prevent  the  do
block from
 being  optimized  away, which caused the statement transition in
elsif
 to reset the stack too far back.

NETaa14876: couldn't delete localized GV safely From: John Hughes
Files patched: pp.c scope.c
 The reference count of the "borrowed" GV needed to be increment-
ed while
 there was a reference to it in the savestack.

NETaa14887: couldn't negate magical scalars From: ian  Also:  Gu-
rusamy Sarathy Files patched: pp.c
 Applied  suggested  patch, more or less.  (It's not necessary to
test both
 SvNIOK and SvNIOKp, since the private bits are always set if the
public
 bits are set.)

NETaa14893: /m modifier was sticky From: Jim Avera Files patched:
pp_ctl.c
 pp_match()  and  pp_subst()  were  using  an  improperly  scoped
SAVEINT to restore
 the value of the internal variable multiline.

NETaa14893: /m modifier was sticky Files patched: cop.h pp_hot.c
 (same)

NETaa14916:  complete.pl  retained  old return value From: Martyn
Pearce Files patched: lib/complete.pl
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14928: non-const 3rd arg to split  assigned  to  list  could
coredump From: Hans de Graaff Files patched: op.c
 The optimizer was assuming the OP was an OP_CONST.

NETaa14942:  substr  as  lvalue could disable magic From: Darrell
Kindred <dkindred+@cmu.edu> Files patched: pp.c
 The substr was disabling the magic of $1.

NETaa14990: "not" not parseable when expecting term From: "Randal
L. Schwartz" Files patched: perly.c perly.c.diff perly.y vms/per-
ly_c.vms
 The NOTOP production needed to be moved down into the terms.

NETaa14993: Bizarre copy of formline From: Tom Christiansen Also:
Charles Bailey Files patched: sv.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa14998:  sv_add_arena()  no longer leaks memory From: Andreas
Koenig Files patched: av.c hv.c perl.h sv.c
 Now keeps one potential arena "on tap", but doesn't use  it  un-
less there's
 demand  for  SV  headers.  When an AV or HV is extended, its old
memory
 becomes the next potential arena unless there already is one, in
which
 case it is simply freed.  This will have the desired property of
not
 stranding medium-sized chunks of memory when extending a  single
array
 repeatedly,  but  will not degrade when there's no SV demand be-
yond keeping
 one chunk of memory on tap, which generally will  be  about  250
bytes big,
 since  it  prefers  the earlier freed chunk over the later.  See
the nice_chunk
 variable.

NETaa14999: $a and $b now protected from use strict  and  lexical
declaration  From: Tom Christiansen Files patched: gv.c pod/perl-
diag.pod toke.c
 Bare $a and $b are now allowed during "use  strict".   In  addi-
tion,
 the following diag was added:

 =item Can't use "my %s" in sort comparison

 (F) The global variables $a and $b are reserved for sort compar-
isons.
 You mentioned $a or $b in the same line as the <=> or cmp opera-
tor,
 and  the  variable  had earlier been declared as a lexical vari-
able.
 Either qualify the sort variable with the package name,  or  re-
name the
 lexical variable.


NETaa15034:  use  strict  refs  should  allow calls to prototyped
functions From: Roderick Schertler Files  patched:  perly.c  per-
ly.c.diff perly.y toke.c vms/perly_c.vms
 Applied patch suggested by Chip.

NETaa15083:  forced  $AUTOLOAD  to  be  untainted From: Tim Bunce
Files patched: gv.c pp_hot.c
 Stripped any taintmagic from $AUTOLOAD after setting it.

NETaa15084: patch for Term::Cap From: Mark Kaehny Also: Hugo  van
der Sanden Files patched: lib/Term/Cap.pm
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa15086:  null  pattern could cause coredump in s//_$1_/ From:
"Paul E. Maisano" Files patched: cop.h pp_ctl.c
 If the replacement  pattern  was  complicated  enough  to  cause
pp_substcont
 to  be  called,  then it lost track of which REGEXP* it was sup-
posed to
 be using.

NETaa15087: t/io/pipe.t didn't work on AIX From:  Andy  Dougherty
Files patched: t/io/pipe.t
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa15088:  study  was  busted  From:  Hugo van der Sanden Files
patched: opcode.h opcode.pl pp.c
 It was studying its scratch pad target rather than the  argument
supplied.

NETaa15090:  MSTATS  patch  From:  Tim Bunce Files patched: glob-
al.sym malloc.c perl.c perl.h proto.h
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa15098: longjmp out of magic leaks memory From: Chip  Salzen-

tures From: Chip Salzenberg Files patched: doop.c interp.sym mg.c
op.c perl.c perl.h pp_ctl.c pp_hot.c pp_sys.c sv.c toke.c util.c
 Applied suggested patches.

NETaa15112: { a_1 => 2 } didn't parse as expected From: Stuart M.
Weinstein Files patched: toke.c
 The little dwimmer was only skipping  ALPHA  rather  than  ALNUM
chars.

NETaa15123:  bitwise ops produce spurious warnings From: Hugo van
der Sanden Also: Chip Salzenberg Also: Andreas  Gustafsson  Files
patched: sv.c
 Decided  to  suppress  the warning in the conversion routines if
merely converting
 a temporary, which can never be a user-supplied value anyway.

NETaa15129: #if defined (foo) misparsed in  h2ph  From:  Roderick
Schertler <roderick@gate.net> Files patched: utils/h2ph.PL
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa15131:  some POSIX functions assumed valid filehandles From:
Chip Salzenberg Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa15151: don't optimize split on  OPpASSIGN_COMMON  From:  Huw
Rogers Files patched: op.c
 Had  to swap the optimization down to after the assignment op is
generated
 and COMMON is calculated, and then clean up the  resultant  tree
differently.

NETaa15154:  MakeMaker-5.18  From:  Andreas Koenig Files patched:
MANIFEST lib/ExtUtils/Liblist.pm lib/ExtUtils/MM_VMS.pm lib/ExtU-
tils/MakeMaker.pm lib/ExtUtils/Mksymlists.pm

NETaa15175: overloaded nomethod has garbage 4th op From: Ilya Za-
kharevich Files patched: gv.c
 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa15179: SvPOK_only shouldn't back off on offset pointer From:
Gutorm.Hogasen@oslo.teamco.telenor.no Files patched: sv.h
 SvPOK_only()  was calling SvOOK_off(), which adjusted the string
pointer
 after tr/// has already acquired it.   It  shouldn't  really  be
necessary
 for SvPOK_only() to undo an offset string pointer, since there's
no
 conflict with a possible  integer  value  where  the  offset  is
stored.

NETaa15193:  & now always bypasses prototype checking From: Larry
Wall Files patched: dump.c op.c op.h perly.c perly.c.diff perly.y
pod/perlsub.pod  pp_hot.c proto.h toke.c vms/perly_c.vms vms/per-
ly_h.vms
 Turned out to be a big hairy deal because the lexer turns  foo()
into &foo().
 But it works consistently now.  Also fixed pod.

NETaa15197:  5.002b2  is 'appending' to $@ From: Gurusamy Sarathy

NETaa15227: $i < 10000 should optimize to integer op From:  Larry
Wall Files patched: op.c op.c
 The program

     for ($i = 0; $i < 100000; $i++) {
     push @foo, $i;
     }

 takes about one quarter the memory if the optimizer decides that
it can
 use an integer < comparison rather than floating point.  It  now
does so
 if  one  side is an integer constant and the other side a simple
variable.
 This should really help some of our benchmarks.  You  can  still
force a
 floating point comparison by using 100000.0 instead.

NETaa15228:   CPerl-mode   patch  From:  Ilya  Zakharevich  Files

NETaa15236: select select  broke  under  use  strict  From:  Chip
Salzenberg Files patched: op.c
 Instead   of  inventing  a  new  bit,  I  just  turned  off  the

 I don't think it's worthwhile distinguishing  between  qualified

 Piggybacked on m//g unset magic to unset the study too.

NETaa15276:  pick a better initial cxstack_max From: Chip Salzen-

 Added fudge in, and made it calculate how many it could fit into
(most of) 8K,

NETaa15287:  numeric  comparison  optimization  adjustments From:

 Applied suggested patch.

NETaa15369:  change  in  split  optimization broke scalar context
From: Ulrich Pfeifer Files patched: op.c
 The earlier patch to make the split optimization  pay  attention
to
 OPpASSIGN_COMMON  rearranged how the syntax tree is constructed,
but kept
 the wrong context flags.  This causes pp_split() do do the wrong
thing.

NETaa15423:  can't  do  subversion numbering because of %5.3f as-
sumptions From: Andy Dougherty Files patched: configpm  patchlev-
el.h perl.c perl.h pp_ctl.c
 Removed  the  %5.3f assumptions where appropriate.  patchlevel.h
now
 defines SUBVERSION, which if greater than 0 indicates a develop-
ment version.

Summary of user-visible Configure and build changes since  5.001:
----------------------------------------------------------------

Yet  more  enhancements and fixes have been made to the Configure
and build process for perl.  Most of these will not be visible to
the  ordinary  user--they  just  make the process more robust and
likely to work on a wider range of platforms.

This is a brief summary of the most important  changes.   A  more
detailed description is given below.

    Slightly changed installation directories.  See INSTALL.

    Include  5.000  -  5.001  upgrage notes :-) (see below).  You
might
    want to read through them as well as these notes.

    Install documentation for perl modules and pod2* translators.
You can
    now  view perl module documentation with either your system's
man(n)
    program or with the supplied perldoc script.

    Many hint file updates.

    Improve and simplify detection of local libraries and  header
files.

    Expand  documentation  of installation process in new INSTALL
file.

    Try to reduce Unixisms (such as SH file  extraction)  to  en-
hance
    portability  to other platforms.  There's still a long way to
go.

Upgrade Traps and Pitfalls:

Since a lot has changed in the build process,  you  are  probably
best off starting with a fresh copy of the perl5.002 sources.  In
particular, your 5.000 or 5.001 config.sh  will  contain  several
variables  that  are  no longer needed.  Further, improvements in
the Configure tests may mean that some of  the  answers  will  be
different  than  they were in previous versions, and which answer
to keep can be difficult to sort out.  Therefore, you are  proba-
bly better off ignoring your old config.sh, as in the following:

     make  -k distclean   # (if you've built perl before)      rm
-f config.sh     # (in case distclean mysteriously fails)      sh
Configure  [whatever options you like]      make depend      make
     make test

This, and much more, is described in the new INSTALL file.

Here are the detailed changes from 5.002beta1 to 5.002b2  in  re-
verse chronolgical order:

------------- Version 5.002beta2 -------------

This  is  patch.2b2  to  perl5.002beta1.   This  takes  you  from
5.002beta1h to 5.002beta2.

Renaming this as beta2 reflects _my_ feeling that  it's  time  to
wrap up things for the release of 5.002.

------------- Version 5.002b1h -------------

This is patch.2b1h to perl5.002beta1.  This is mainly a  clean-up
patch.   No  progress  is made dealing with memory leaks or opti-
mizations, though I have  used  #define  STRANGE_MALLOC  to  work
around at least some problems.

    Upgraded to metaconfig patchlevel 60.

    Add in usesafe variable to include or exclude the Safe exten-
sion.

    Test for sigaction().

    Check for pager.  This was actually  accidental  since  perl-
doc.PL
    mentions $pager and metaconfig has a unit to check for the
    user's pager.  In retrospect, I decided the Configure check
    didn't do any harm and some extension writers might decide to
    use it.

    Always put man1dir under $prefix unless a command line
    override is used.

    Allow command-line overrides of $man1ext and $man3ext.


    Allow man1dir and man3dir names like .../man.1 instead of
    just .../man1.

    Lots of rearrangements of various pieces of Configure.
    This might be because I ran metaconfig on a different
    architecture.

    libc searching now honors $libpth.  Previously, it (almost)
    always looked in /usr/lib before checking /lib.

    Only prompt user if voidflags is not 15.  If voidflags is 15,
then
    we presume all is well.

Index: Configure

    Include Jeff Okamoto's patch to allow arbitrary specification
    of $startperl.

    As requested, I have moved site_perl to be under
    $privlib, by default.  The default will now be
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl.  This is in accord  with  the
way
    emacs used to do it :-).

Index: MANIFEST
    Add  in  POSIX.pod.   I didn't include Dean's mkposixman tool
because
    it seemed to confuse MakeMaker, and I didn't want to manually
fix
    the POSIX/Makefile.PL file today.

    Renamed minimod.PL.  The idea is as follows:  I'd like to re-
serve
    the .PL suffix for files  that  are  extracted  during  build
time, and
    then can be deleted after installation.  That is, it will be
    analogous to the .SH suffix.  For example, h2xs.PL creates
    h2xs,  and  a  'make  realclean' will remove the h2xs.  Mini-
mod.PL
    was an exception to this pattern.  Eventually, the .PL depen-
dencies
    will be generated automatically, just as the .SH dependencies
are
    now.

    Add in socket test.

Index: Configure

Upgraded to metaconfig PL60  (despite  the  erroneous  metaconfig
message.

Layed  some  groundwork  for support on non Unix systems, such as
OS/2.  Define things such as  .o vs. .obj,  '' vs. .exe,  .a  vs.
.lib, etc.

Include I_LOCALE testing.

Include checks for new library set-up.  I don't want to ever have
to change this again.  It's documented more clearly in INSTALL.

Figure out correct  string  for  $startperl  (usually  #!/usr/lo-
cal/bin/perl).

Improve  signal detection even more.  Once again, the signal num-
ber corresponding to sig_name[n] is n (up to  NSIG-1).   Gaps  in
signal  numbers (e.g. on Solaris) are allowed and are filled with
innocuous names such as NUM37 NUM38, etc., where  the  37  or  38
represents the actual signal number.

Indicate  that  only  the interfaces to gdbm and db are provided,
not the libraries themselves.

Index: MANIFEST

In an attempt to make the distribution slightly less Unix specif-
ic, I've changed .SH extraction to a .PL extraction where  possi-
ble.  That way folks on systems without a shell can still get the
auxilliarly files such as find2perl (assuming  they  *can*  build
perl).

The  emacs/  directory  was  hopelessly out of date.  I don't use
emacs, but included a current cperl-mode.el
