+Jarkko Hietaniemi and Andy Lester worked to mark as much data as possible in
+the C source files as C<static>, to increase the proportion of the executable
+file that the operating system can share between process, and thus reduce
+real memory usage on multi-user systems.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 Installation and Configuration Improvements
+
+Parallel makes should work properly now, although there may still be problems
+if C<make test> is instructed to run in parallel.
+
+Building with Borland's compilers on Win32 should work more smoothly. In
+particular Steve Hay has worked to side step many warnings emitted by their
+compilers and at least one C compiler internal error.
+
+C<Configure> will now detect C<clearenv> and C<unsetenv>, thanks to a patch
+from Alan Burlison. It will also probe for C<futimes> and whether C<sprintf>
+correctly returns the length of the formatted string, which will both be used
+in perl 5.8.9.
+
+There are improved hints for next-3.0, vmesa, IX, Darwin, Solaris, Linux,
+DEC/OSF, HP-UX and MPE/iX
+
+Perl extensions on Windows now can be statically built into the Perl DLL,
+thanks to a work by Vadim Konovalov. (This improvement was actually in 5.8.7,
+but was accidentally omitted from L<perl587delta>).
+
+=head1 Selected Bug Fixes
+
+=head2 no warnings 'category' works correctly with -w
+
+Previously when running with warnings enabled globally via C<-w>, selective
+disabling of specific warning categories would actually turn off all warnings.
+This is now fixed; now C<no warnings 'io';> will only turn off warnings in the
+C<io> class. Previously it would erroneously turn off all warnings.
+
+This bug fix may cause some programs to start correctly issuing warnings.
+
+=head2 Remove over-optimisation
+
+Perl 5.8.4 introduced a change so that assignments of C<undef> to a
+scalar, or of an empty list to an array or a hash, were optimised away. As
+this could cause problems when C<goto> jumps were involved, this change
+has been backed out.
+
+=head2 sprintf() fixes
+
+Using the sprintf() function with some formats could lead to a buffer
+overflow in some specific cases. This has been fixed, along with several
+other bugs, notably in bounds checking.
+
+In related fixes, it was possible for badly written code that did not follow
+the documentation of C<Sys::Syslog> to have formatting vulnerabilities.
+C<Sys::Syslog> has been changed to protect people from poor quality third
+party code.
+
+=head2 Debugger and Unicode slowdown
+
+It had been reported that running under perl's debugger when processing
+Unicode data could cause unexpectedly large slowdowns. The most likely cause
+of this was identified and fixed by Nicholas Clark.
+
+=head2 Smaller fixes
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+C<FindBin> now works better with directories where access rights are more
+restrictive than usual.
+
+=item *
+
+Several memory leaks in ithreads were closed. An improved implementation of
+C<threads::shared> is available on CPAN - this will be merged into 5.8.9 if
+it proves stable.
+
+=item *
+
+Trailing spaces are now trimmed from C<$!> and C<$^E>.
+
+=item *
+
+Operations that require perl to read a process' list of groups, such as reads
+of C<$(> and C<$)>, now dynamically allocate memory rather than using a
+fixed sized array. The fixed size array could cause C stack exhaustion on
+systems configured to use large numbers of groups.
+
+=item *
+
+C<PerlIO::scalar> now works better with non-default C<$/> settings.
+
+=item *
+
+You can now use the C<x> operator to repeat a C<qw//> list. This used
+to raise a syntax error.
+
+=item *
+
+The debugger now traces correctly execution in eval("")uated code that
+contains #line directives.
+
+=item *
+
+The value of the C<open> pragma is no longer ignored for three-argument
+opens.
+
+=item *
+
+The optimisation of C<for (reverse @a)> introduced in perl 5.8.6 could
+misbehave when the array had undefined elements and was used in LVALUE
+context. Dave Mitchell provided a fix.
+
+=item *
+
+Some case insensitive matches between UTF-8 encoded data and 8 bit regexps,
+and vice versa, could give malformed character warnings. These have been
+fixed by Dave Mitchell and Yves Orton.
+
+=item *
+
+C<lcfirst> and C<ucfirst> could corrupt the string for certain cases where
+the length UTF-8 encoding of the string in lower case, upper case or title
+case differed. This was fixed by Nicholas Clark.
+
+=item *
+
+Perl will now use the C library calls C<unsetenv> and C<clearenv> if present
+to delete keys from C<%ENV> and delete C<%ENV> entirely, thanks to a patch
+from Alan Burlison.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 New or Changed Diagnostics
+
+=head2 Attempt to set length of freed array
+
+This is a new warning, produced in situations such as this:
+
+ $r = do {my @a; \$#a};
+ $$r = 503;
+
+=head2 Non-string passed as bitmask
+
+This is a new warning, produced when number has been passed as a argument to
+select(), instead of a bitmask.
+
+ # Wrong, will now warn
+ $rin = fileno(STDIN);
+ ($nfound,$timeleft) = select($rout=$rin, undef, undef, $timeout);
+
+ # Should be
+ $rin = '';
+ vec($rin,fileno(STDIN),1) = 1;
+ ($nfound,$timeleft) = select($rout=$rin, undef, undef, $timeout);
+
+=head2 Search pattern not terminated or ternary operator parsed as search pattern
+
+This syntax error indicates that the lexer couldn't find the final
+delimiter of a C<?PATTERN?> construct. Mentioning the ternary operator in
+this error message makes it easier to diagnose syntax errors.
+
+=head1 Changed Internals
+
+There has been a fair amount of refactoring of the C<C> source code, partly to
+make it tidier and more maintainable. The resulting object code and the
+C<perl> binary may well be smaller than 5.8.7, in particular due to a change
+contributed by Dave Mitchell which reworked the warnings code to be
+significantly smaller. Apart from being smaller and possibly faster, there
+should be no user-detectable changes.
+
+Andy Lester supplied many improvements to determine which function
+parameters and local variables could actually be declared C<const> to the C
+compiler. Steve Peters provided new C<*_set> macros and reworked the core to
+use these rather than assigning to macros in LVALUE context.
+
+Dave Mitchell improved the lexer debugging output under C<-DT>
+
+Nicholas Clark changed the string buffer allocation so that it is now rounded
+up to the next multiple of 4 (or 8 on platforms with 64 bit pointers). This
+should reduce the number of calls to C<realloc> without actually using any
+extra memory.
+
+The C<HV>'s array of C<HE*>s is now allocated at the correct (minimal) size,
+thanks to another change by Nicholas Clark. Compile with
+C<-DPERL_USE_LARGE_HV_ALLOC> to use the old, sloppier, default.
+
+For XS or embedding debugging purposes, if perl is compiled with
+C<-DDEBUG_LEAKING_SCALARS_FORK_DUMP> in addition to
+C<-DDEBUG_LEAKING_SCALARS> then a child process is C<fork>ed just before
+global destruction, which is used to display the values of any scalars
+found to have leaked at the end of global destruction. Without this, the
+scalars have already been freed sufficiently at the point of detection that
+it is impossible to produce any meaningful dump of their contents. This
+feature was implemented by the indefatigable Nicholas Clark, based on an idea
+by Mike Giroux.
+
+=head1 Platform Specific Problems
+
+The optimiser on HP-UX 11.23 (Itanium 2) is currently partly disabled (scaled
+down to +O1) when using HP C-ANSI-C; the cause of problems at higher
+optimisation levels is still unclear.
+
+There are a handful of remaining test failures on VMS, mostly due to
+test fixes and minor module tweaks with too many dependencies to
+integrate into this release from the development stream, where they have
+all been corrected. The following is a list of expected failures with
+the patch number of the fix where that is known:
+
+ ext/Devel/PPPort/t/ppphtest.t #26913
+ ext/List/Util/t/p_tainted.t #26912
+ lib/ExtUtils/t/PL_FILES.t #26813

+=head1 Reporting Bugs
+
+If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the articles
+recently posted to the comp.lang.perl.misc newsgroup and the perl
+bug database at http://bugs.perl.org. There may also be
+information at http://www.perl.org, the Perl Home Page.
+
+If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the B<perlbug>
+program included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down
+to a tiny but sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the
+output of C<perl -V>, will be sent off to perlbug@perl.org to be
+analysed by the Perl porting team. You can browse and search
+the Perl 5 bugs at http://bugs.perl.org/
