+
+ - Fixed some problems on VMS in which a directory called "0" would be
+ treated as a second-class citizen. [Peter (Stig) Edwards]
+
+ - Added a couple of regression tests to make sure abs2rel('/foo/bar',
+ '/') works as expected. [Chia-liang Kao]
+
+ - Added a couple of regression tests to make sure catdir('/',
+ 'foo/bar') works as expected. [Mark Grimes]

+
+ - The Cygwin version of Cwd::cwd() will croak if given any arguments
+ (which can happen if, for example, it's called as Cwd->cwd). Since
+ that croaking is bad, we now wrap the original cwd() in a
+ subroutine that ignores its arguments. We could skip this wrapping
+ if a future version of perl changes cygwin.c's cwd() to not barf
+ when fed an argument. [Jerry D. Hedden]

+
+ - Updated to version 3.06 of ppport.h, which provides backward
+ compatibility XS layers for older perl versions.
+
+ - Clarify in the docs for File::Spec's abs2rel() and rel2abs()
+ methods that the cwd() function it discusses is
+ Cwd::cwd(). [Spotted by Steven Lembark]
+
+ - Apparently the version of File::Path that ships with perl 5.8.5
+ (and perhaps others) calls Cwd::getcwd() with an argument (perhaps
+ as a method?), which causes it to die with a prototyping error.
+ We've eliminated the prototype by using the "(...)" arglist, since
+ "PROTOTYPE: DISABLE" for the function didn't seem to work. [Spotted
+ by Eamon Daly and others]

- The Cwd::getcwd() function on *nix is now a direct pass-through to
