to the numeric value of $!.

Subject: Re: pre extending hash? - need speed

The patch below (which is relative to perl5.001l) implements
"keys %hash = 50_000;" (or other integer-evaluable sizes) for
pre-sizing hashes.  I've only moved the patch forward from
when I first did it.  I'm sure the code in hv_ksplit could be
improved.

Subject: 5.003_05: Fix numeric $! and $^E

This patch undoes a bit of over-zealous integerization in mg.c,
related to the numeric values of $! and $^E.  This patch *REPLACES*
the one I posted earlier, which was only effective for $!.

[Some of this is superceded by similar stuff in the VMS patches.]
