+ --
+ use a better prefixify() heuristic than m/perl/ (prefix/lib/perl5
+ and prefix/lib/perl5/man are ass_u_med only if those directories
+ actually exist; else prefix/{lib,man} are used)
+ --
+ allow C<-foo> under C<use integer> (behavior of C<-$string>
+ is unchanged still)
+ --
+ avoid race condition in the CAPI extension bootstrap handler
+ --
+ sanity check to cover the case when perl is installed into the
+ X:\ (drive root)
+ --
+ truncate() has a peculiar exemption from strict barewords, even
+ though it has a non-filehandle prototype
+ --
+ change#3447 didn't do enough to exempt Foo->bar(qw/.../) from
+ strict 'subs'
+ --
+ change#3449 wasn't doing enough
+ --
+ make win32_spawnvp() inherit standard handles even when they
+ may be redirected
+ --
+ minor logic tweak for reserved word warning
+ --
+ oops, some files missing in change#3449
+ --
+ allow '*' prototype to autoquote even barewords that happen to be
+ function names; parens or ampersand continue to force the other
+ interpretation; makes C<sub Foo {'bar'} CORE::GLOBAL::require Foo;>
+ do the right thing, for example
+ --
+ redo change#2061 and parts of change#1169 with code in the
+ parser; PL_last_proto hackery gone, strict 'subs' in now
+ implemented in the optimizer where specifying the exceptional
+ cases is much more robust; '*' (bareword) prototype now works
+ reliably when used in second and subsequent arguments
+ --
+ remove redundant part of change#1169 superceded by change#2061;
+ avoid "future reserved word" warning on prototypical bearwords
+ --
+ s/isspace/isSPACE/g and make sure the CRT version is always
+ passed an unsigned char (fixes random occurrence of spaces in
+ arguments containing high-bit chars passed to spawned children,
+ on win32)
+ --
+ on win32, look for "site/5.XXX/lib" if "site/5.XXXYY/lib" isn't
+ found (brings sitelib intuition in line with privlib)
+ --
+ mortalize string allocations by win32_get_{priv,site}lib()
+ (fixes small memory leak in interpreter)
+ --
+ opendir(D,"x:") on win32 opens cwd() for drive rather than root;
+ stat() behaves similarly

+ Log: more changes for new-style version numbers (versions numbers on
+ the filesystem look like 5.5.640, except on DOS-DJGPP and VMS where
+ they look like 5_5_640; delete @Config{pm_apiversion,xs_apiversion};
+ split $Config{apiversion} into three, @Config{apirevision,apiversion,
+ apisubversion} for CPP friendliness; $Config{sitelib} now defaults
+ to .../site_perl/$version, just like $Config{privlib}, making sitelib
+ completely independent across versions and substantially eliminating
+ chances of breaking older installations by overwriting newly built
+ extensions; all this means compatibility inclusions for @INC will need
+ to take into account older sitelib versions (this still TODO)
