+Symbols starting with "_" no longer forced into main, Double-colon valid

+in scalar context, Can't do C<goto> into a block that is optimized away,
+Can't use whitespace as variable name or quote delimiter, C<while/if BLOCK
+BLOCK> gone, C<**> binds tighter than unary minus, C<foreach> changed when

=item Parsing Traps
-Parsing, Parsing, Parsing, Parsing, Parsing
+Space between . and = triggers syntax error, Better parsing in perl 5,
+Function parsing, String interpolation of C<$#array> differs, Perl guesses

=item Numerical Traps
-Numerical, Numerical, Numerical, Bitwise string ops
+Formatted output and significant digits, Auto-increment operator over

+tests doesn't work, Bitwise string ops
=item General data type traps
-(Arrays), (Arrays), (Hashes), (Globs), (Globs), (Scalar String),
-(Constants), (Scalars), (Variable Suicide)
+Negative array subscripts now count from the end of array, Setting
+C<$#array> lower now discards array elements, Hashes get defined before
+use, Glob assignment from localized variable to variable, Assigning
+C<undef> to glob, Changes in unary negation (of strings), Modifying of
+constants prohibited, C<defined $var> behavior changed, Variable Suicide
=item Context Traps - scalar, list contexts
-(list context), (scalar context), (scalar context), (list, builtin)
+Elements of argument lists for formats evaluated in list context,
+C<caller()> returns false value in scalar context if no caller present,
+Comma operator in scalar context gives scalar context to args, C<sprintf()>
+prototyped as C<($;@)>
=item Precedence Traps
-Precedence, Precedence, Precedence, Precedence, Precedence, Precedence,
-Precedence
+LHS vs. RHS of any assignment operator, Semantic errors introduced due to
+precedence, Precedence of assignment operators same as the precedence of

+precedence over C<$::> gone, Precedence of file test operators documented,
+C<keys>, C<each>, C<values> are regular named unary operators
=item General Regular Expression Traps using s///, etc.
-Regular Expression, Regular Expression, Regular Expression, Regular
-Expression, Regular Expression, Regular Expression, Regular Expression,
-Regular Expression
+C<s'$lhs'$rhs'> interpolates on either side, C<m//g> attaches its state to
+the searched string, C<m//o> used within an anonymous sub, C<$+> isn't set
+to whole match, Substitution now returns null string if it fails,
+C<s`lhs`rhs`> is now a normal substitution, Stricter parsing of variables
+in regular expressions, C<m?x?> matches only once, Failed matches don't
+reset the match variables
=item Subroutine, Signal, Sorting Traps
-(Signals), (Sort Subroutine), warn() won't let you specify a filehandle
+Barewords that used to look like strings look like subroutine calls,
+Reverse is no longer allowed as the name of a sort subroutine, C<warn()>
+won't let you specify a filehandle

=item Interpolation Traps
-Interpolation, Interpolation, Interpolation, Interpolation, Interpolation,
-Interpolation, Interpolation, Interpolation, Interpolation
+C<@> always interpolates an array in double-quotish strings, Double-quoted
+strings may no longer end with an unescaped $, Arbitrary expressions are
+evaluated inside braces within double quotes, C<$$x> now tries to
+dereference $x, Creation of hashes on the fly with C<eval "EXPR"> requires
+protection, Bugs in earlier perl versions, Array and hash brackets during
+interpolation, Interpolation of C<\$$foo{bar}>, C<qq()> string passed to
+C<eval> will not find string terminator
=item DBM Traps
-DBM, DBM
