-. Description:
-
-       Version 2.03    Header changes on 5.6.x on Unix where IV is long long
-
-       5.6.x introduced the ability to have IVs as long long.  However,
-       Configure still defined BYTEORDER based on the size of a long.
-       Storable uses the BYTEORDER value as part of the header, but doesn't
-       explicity store sizeof(IV) anywhere in the header.  Hence on 5.6.x
-       built with IV as long long on a platform that uses Configure (ie most
-       things except VMS and Windows) headers are identical for the different
-       IV sizes, despite the files containing some fields based on sizeof(IV)
-
-       5.8.0 is consistent; all platforms have BYTEORDER in config.h based on
-       sizeof(IV) rather than sizeof(long).  This means that the value of
-       BYTEORDER will change from (say) 4321 to 87654321 between 5.6.1 and
-       5.8.0 built with the same options to Configure on the same machine.
-       This means that the Storable header will differ, and the two versions
-       will wrongly thing that they are incompatible.
-
-       For the benefit of long term consistency, Storable now implements the
-       5.8.0 BYTEORDER policy on 5.6.x.  This means that 2.03 onwards default
-       to be incompatible with 2.02 and earlier (ie the large 1.0.x installed
-       base) on the same 5.6.x perl.
-
-       To allow interworking, a new variable $Storable::interwork_56_64bit
-       is introduced.  It defaults to false.  Set it to true to read and
-       write old format files.  Don't use it unless you have existing
-       stored data written with 5.6.x that you couldn't otherwise read,
-       or you need to interwork with a machine running older Storable on
-       a 5.6.x with long long IVs.  ie you probably don't need to use it.
