=head1 DESCRIPTION
old code that used floating point numbers even for integer constants),
and slightly faster, you might want to consider regenerating your
extension code (the new scheme makes regenerating easy).
+L<h2xs> now also supports C trigraphs.

+DYNIX/ptx platform (a.k.a. dynixptx) is supported at or near osvers 4.5.2.

Several MacOS (Classic) portability patches have been applied. We
hope to get a fully working port by 5.8.0. (The remaining problems
relate to the changed IO model of Perl.) See L<perlmacos>.
Examples include any platform using sfio, and Compaq/Tandem's NonStop-UX.
The failing platforms do not comply with the ANSI C Standard, line
19ff on page 134 of ANSI X3.159 1989 to be exact. (They produce
-something else than "1" and "-1" when formatting 0.6 and -0.6 using
+something other than "1" and "-1" when formatting 0.6 and -0.6 using
the printf format "%.0f", most often they produce "0" and "-0".)
