+ Log: MacOS Classic catdir() rewrite from Thomas Wegner
+ (backward incompatibility, but a deliberate one,
+ the old version simply is broken in its logic),
+ also documentation updates, and as suggested replicated
+ the File::Spec::Unix documentation updates also on the
+ File::Spec documentation.
+
+ TODO: there seems to be duplication of documentation
+ between File::Spec and File::Spec::Unix. I think
+ the ::Unix should be left only with specific UNIXisms,
+ and all the generic documentation should be in ::Spec.

+ Log: Rewrite mktables from scratch.
+ - Cleaner.
+ - Faster: 15-20 seconds as opposed to several minutes.
+ - More dynamic: the names of the various categories
+ such as the linebreak ones are dynamic, not static.
+ - Is.pl: long names for the general category properties
+ are now available.
+ - Ranges (<... ,First>, <..., Last>) from the general
+ categories work now.
+ - No more mktables.PL because the mktables.PL is not
+ and never has been run to create a mktables.
+ - syllables.txt and Is/Syl*.pl removed: non-standard
+ (not part of the Unicode), and the whole concept is
+ being reworked (http://syllabary.sourceforge.net/),
+ the old way wouldn't even work with the new Syllables.txt
+ (it would result in 1000+ new categories)
