This is my patch patch.0a for perl5.000.

This is my patch  patch.0a  for perl5.000.

[Actually, that's a lie.  This is just MakeMaker 3.6.  I've just
usurped the letter 'a' to fit it into my patch sequence.]

this patch includes:

- My recently posted 'Very small patches to AutoSplit.pm and Cwd.pm'
  (with no changes).

- A previous small patch to DynaLoader .bs handling with one addition:
  !     if (-f $bs) {
  !     if (-s $bs) { # only read file if it's not empty

- A recently posted patch to hints/aix.sh (with cosmetic changes).

Hopefully no further changes to MakeMaker will be needed before perl5.001.
If any changes are required I intend that they will be release as patches
to be applied over this one. This is the last MakeMaker jumbo patch for
perl5.000.

Patch and enjoy.

Regards,
Tim Bunce.

p.s. I'll be around until about 4pm GMT tomorrow (Tuesday), after that
I'm off for Christmas. This has been a great year for me. I have very
much enjoyed working with the perl5-porters and I wish you all a
wonderful and merry Christmas and a very happy New Year.
