+-------------
+Version 5.002
+-------------
+
+The main enhancement to the Perl core was the addition of prototypes.
+Many of the modules that come with Perl have been extensively upgraded.
+
+Other than that, nearly all the changes for 5.002 were bug fixes of one
+variety or another, so here's the bug list, along with the "resolution"
+for each of them. If you wish to correspond about any of them, please
+include the bug number (if any).
+
+Changes specific to the Configure and build process are described
+at the bottom.
+
+Added APPLLIB_EXP for embedded perl library support.
+Files patched: perl.c
+
+Couldn't define autoloaded routine by assignment to typeglob.
+Files patched: pp_hot.c sv.c
+
+NETaa13525: Tiny patch to fix installman -n

+Files patched: MANIFEST hints/powerux.sh
+
+NETaa13540: VMS uses CLK_TCK for HZ
+Files patched: pp_sys.c
+
+NETaa13721: pad_findlex core dumps on bad CvOUTSIDE()
+From: Carl Witty
+Files patched: op.c sv.c toke.c
+ Each CV has a reference to the CV containing it lexically. Unfortunately,
+ it didn't reference-count this reference, so when the outer CV was freed,
+ we ended up with a pointer to memory that got reused later as some other kind
+ of SV.
+
+NETaa13721: warning suppression
+Files patched: toke.c
+ (same)
+
+NETaa13722: walk.c had inconsistent static declarations
+From: Tim Bunce
+Files patched: x2p/walk.c
+ Consolidated the various declarations and made them consistent with
+ the actual definitions.
+
+NETaa13724: -MPackage=args patch
+From: Tim Bunce
+Files patched: perl.c pod/perlrun.pod
+ Added in the -MPackage=args patch too.
+
+NETaa13729: order-of-evaluation dependency in scope.c on leaving REGCONTEXT
+From: "Jason Shirk"
+Files patched: scope.c
+ Did
+
+ I32 delta = SSPOPINT;
+ savestack_ix -= delta; /* regexp must have croaked */
+
+ instead.
+
+NETaa13731: couldn't assign external lexical array to itself
+From: oneill@cs.sfu.ca
+Files patched: op.c
+ The pad_findmy routine was only checking previous statements for previous
+ mention of external lexicals, so the fact that the current statement
+ already mentioned @list was not noted. It therefore allocated another
+ reference to the outside lexical, and this didn't compare equal when
+ the assigment parsing code was trying to determine whether there was a
+ common variable on either side of the equals. Since it didn't see the
+ same variable, it thought it could avoid making copies of the values on
+ the stack during list assignment. Unfortunately, before using those
+ values, the list assignment has to zero out the target array, which
+ destroys the values.
+
+ The fix was to make pad_findmy search the current statement as well. This
+ was actually a holdover from some old code that was trying to delay
+ introduction of "my" variables until the next statement. This is now
+ done with a different mechanism, so the fix should not adversely affect
+ that.
+
+NETaa13733: s/// doesn't free old string when using copy mode
+From: Larry Wall
+Files patched: pp_ctl.c pp_hot.c
+ When I removed the use of sv_replace(), I simply forgot to free the old char*.
+
+NETaa13736: closures leaked memory
+From: Carl Witty
+Files patched: op.c pp.c
+ This is a specific example of a more general bug, fixed as NETaa13760, having
+ to do with reference counts on comppads.
+
+NETaa13739: XSUB interface caches gimme in case XSUB clobbers it
+From: Dean Roehrich
+Files patched: pp_hot.c
+ Applied suggest patch. Also deleted second gimme declaration as redundant.
+
+NETaa13760: comppad reference counts were inconsistent
+From: Larry Wall
+Files patched: op.c perl.c pp_ctl.c toke.c
+ All official references to comppads are supposed to be through compcv now,
+ but the transformation was not complete, resulting in memory leakage.
+
+NETaa13761: sv_2pv() wrongly preferred IV to NV when SV was readonly
+From: "Jack R. Lawler"
+Files patched: sv.c
+ Okay, I understand how this one happened. This is a case where a
+ beneficial fix uncovered a bug elsewhere. I changed the constant
+ folder to prefer integer results over double if the numbers are the
+ same. In this case, they aren't, but it leaves the integer value there
+ anyway because the storage is already allocated for it, and it *might*
+ be used in an integer context. And since it's producing a constant, it
+ sets READONLY. Unfortunately, sv_2pv() bogusly preferred the integer
+ value to the double when READONLY was set. This never showed up if you
+ just said
+
+ print 1.4142135623731;
+
+ because in that case, there was already a string value.
+
+
+NETaa13772: shmwrite core dumps consistently
+From: Gabe Schaffer
+Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl
+ The shmwrite operator is a list operator but neglected to push a stack
+ mark beforehand, because an 'm' was missing from opcode.pl.
+
+NETaa13773: $. was misdocumented as read-only.

+From: Hans Mulder
+Files patched: pp_hot.c toke.c
+ Now produces suggested error message. Also installed guard in warning code
+ that coredumped.
+
+NETaa13779: foreach didn't use savestack mechanism
+From: Hans Mulder
+Files patched: cop.h pp_ctl.c
+ The foreach mechanism saved the old scalar value on the context stack
+ rather than the savestack. It could consequently get out of sync if
+ unexpectedly unwound.
+
+NETaa13785: GIMME sometimes used wrong context frame
+From: Greg Earle
+Files patched: embed.h global.sym op.h pp_ctl.c proto.h
+ The expression inside the return was taking its context from the immediately
+ surrounding block rather than the innermost surrounding subroutine call.
+
+NETaa13797: could modify sv_undef through auto-vivification
+From: Ilya Zakharevich
+Files patched: pp.c
+ Inserted the missing check for readonly values on auto-vivification.
+
+NETaa13798: if (...) {print} treats print as quoted
+From: Larry Wall
+Files patched: toke.c
+ The trailing paren of the condition was setting expectations to XOPERATOR
+ rather than XBLOCK, so it was being treated like ${print}.
+
+NETaa13926: commonality was not detected in assignments using COND_EXPR
+From: Mark Hanson
+Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl
+ The assignment compiler didn't check the 2nd and 3rd args of a ?:
+ for commonality. It still doesn't, but I made ?: into a "dangerous"
+ operator so it is forced to treat it as common.
+
+NETaa13957: was marking the PUSHMARK as modifiable rather than the arg
+From: David Couture
+Files patched: op.c sv.c
+ It was marking the PUSHMARK as modifiable rather than the arg.
+
+NETaa13962: documentation of behavior of scalar <*> was unclear
+From: Tom Christiansen
+Files patched: pod/perlop.pod
+ Added the following to perlop:
+
+ A glob only evaluates its (embedded) argument when it is starting a new
+ list. All values must be read before it will start over. In a list
+ context this isn't important, because you automatically get them all
+ anyway. In a scalar context, however, the operator returns the next value
+ each time it is called, or a FALSE value if you've just run out. Again,
+ FALSE is returned only once. So if you're expecting a single value from
+ a glob, it is much better to say
+
+ ($file) = <blurch*>;
+
+ than
+
+ $file = <blurch*>;
+
+ because the latter will alternate between returning a filename and
+ returning FALSE.
+
+
+NETaa13986: split ignored /m pattern modifier
+From: Winfried Koenig

+ Fixed to work like m// and s///.
+
+NETaa13992: regexp comments not seen after + in non-extended regexp
+From: Mark Knutsen

+ let it work when /x was in effect.
+
+NETaa14014: use subs should not count as definition, only as declaration
+From: Keith Thompson
+Files patched: sv.c
+ On *foo = \&bar, doesn't set GVf_IMPORTED if foo and bar are in same package.
+
+NETaa14021: sv_inc and sv_dec "upgraded" magical SV to non-magical
+From: Paul A Sand

+Files patched: sv.c
+ The sv_inc() and sv_dec() routines "upgraded" null magical SVs to non-magical.
+
+NETaa14086: require should check tainting
+From: Karl Simon Berg
+Files patched: pp_ctl.c
+ Since we shouldn't allow tainted requires anyway, it now says:

+
+NETaa14104: negation fails on magical variables like $1
+From: tim
+Files patched: pp.c
+ Negation was failing on magical values like $1. It was testing the wrong

+
+NETaa14138: substr() and s/// can cause core dump
+From: Andrew Vignaux
+Files patched: pp_hot.c
+ Forgot to call SvOOK_off() on the SV before freeing its string.
+
+NETaa14145: ${@INC}[0] dumped core in debugger
+From: Hans Mulder
+Files patched: sv.c
+ Now croaks "Bizarre copy of ARRAY in block exit", which is better than
+ a core dump. The fact that ${@INC}[0] means $INC[0] outside the debugger
+ is a different bug.
+
+NETaa14147: bitwise assignment ops wipe out byte of target string
+From: Jim Richardson
+Files patched: doop.c
+ The code was assuming that the target was not either of the two operands,
+ which is false for an assignment operator.
+
+NETaa14153: lexing of lexicals in patterns fooled by character class
+From: Dave Bianchi
+Files patched: toke.c
+ It never called the dwimmer, which is how it fooled it.

+NETaa14154: allowed autoloaded methods by recognizing sub method; declaration
+From: Larry Wall

+
+NETaa14156: shouldn't optimize block scope on tainting
+From: Pete Peterson

+From: Tim Bunce <Tim.Bunce@ig.co.uk>
+Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs
+ The .xs file now distinguishes non-constant "constants" by setting EAGAIN.
+ This will also let us use #ifdef within the .xs file to de-constantify

+NETaa14166: missing semicolon after "my" induces core dump

+NETaa14321: literal @array check shouldn't happen inside embedded expressions
+From: Mark H. Nodine
+Files patched: toke.c
+ The general solution to this is to disable the literal @array check within
+ any embedded expression. For instance, this also failed bogusly:
+
+ print "$foo{@foo}";
+
+ The reason fixing this also fixes the s///e problem is that the lexer
+ effectively puts the RHS into a do {} block, making the expression

+
+ : No. Larry's currently got the patch pumpkin for all such core perl topics.
+
+ I dunno whether you should let me have the patch pumpkin or not. To fix
+ a Sev 2 I just hacked in rudimentary prototypes. :-)
+
+ We can now define true unary subroutines, as well as argumentless
+ subroutines:
+
+ sub baz () { 12; } # Must not have argument
+ sub bar ($) { $_[0] * 7 } # Must have exactly one argument
+ sub foo ($@) { print "@_\n" } # Must have at least one argument
+ foo bar baz / 2 || "oops", "is the answer";
+
+ This prints "42 is the answer" on my machine. That is, it's the same as
+
+ foo( bar( baz() / 2) || "oops", "is the answer");
+
+ Attempting to compile
+
+ foo;
+
+ results in
+
+ Too few arguments for main::foo at ./try line 8, near "foo;"
+
+ Compiling
+
+ bar 1,2,3;
+
+ results in
+
+ Too many arguments for main::bar at ./try line 8, near "foo;"
+
+ But
+
+ @array = ('a','b','c');
+ foo @array, @array;
+
+ prints "3 a b c" because the $ puts the first arg of foo into scalar context.
+
+ The main win at this point is that we can say
+
+ sub AAA () { 1; }
+ sub BBB () { 2; }
+
+ and the user can say AAA + BBB and get 3.
+
+ I'm not quite sure how this interacts with autoloading though. I fear
+ POSIX.pm will need to say
+
+ sub E2BIG ();
+ sub EACCES ();
+ sub EAGAIN ();
+ sub EBADF ();
+ sub EBUSY ();
+ ...
+ sub _SC_STREAM_MAX ();
+ sub _SC_TZNAME_MAX ();
+ sub _SC_VERSION ();
+
+ unless we can figure out how to efficiently declare a default prototype
+ at import time. Meaning, not using eval. Currently
+
+ *foo = \&bar;
+
+ (the ordinary import mechanism) implicitly stubs &bar with no prototype if
+ &bar is not yet declared. It's almost like you want an AUTOPROTO to
+ go with your AUTOLOAD.
+
+ Another thing to rub one's 5 o'clock shadow over is that there's no way
+ to apply a prototype to a method call at compile time.
+
+ And no, I don't want to have the
+
+ sub howabout ($formal, @arguments) { ... }
+
+ argument right now.

+NETaa14529: a partially matching subpattern could spoof infinity detector
+From: Wayne Berke
+Files patched: regexec.c
+ A partial match on a subpattern could fool the infinite regress detector
+ into thinking progress had been made.
+ The previous workaround prevented another bug (NETaa14529) from being fixed,
+ so I've backed it out. I'll need to think more about how to detect failure
+ to progress. I'm still hopeful it's not equivalent to the halting problem.

+NETaa14689: shouldn't have . in @INC when tainting

+
+NETaa14690: values inside tainted SVs were ignored

+
+NETaa14697: regexp comments were sometimes wrongly treated as literal text
+From: Tom Christiansen
+Files patched: regcomp.c
+ The literal-character grabber didn't know about extended comments.
+ N.B. '#' is treated as a comment character whenever the /x option is
+ used now, so you can't include '#' as a simple literal in /x regexps.
+
+ (By the way, Tom, the boxed form of quoting in the previous enclosure is
+ exceeding antisocial when you want to extract the code from it.)
+
+NETaa14704: closure got wrong outer scope if outer sub was predeclared
+From: Marc Paquette
+Files patched: op.c
+ The outer scope of the anonymous sub was set to the stub rather than to

+From: Yary Hluchan
+Files patched: sv.c sv.c

+NETaa14998: sv_add_arena() no longer leaks memory
+From: Andreas Koenig
+Files patched: av.c hv.c perl.h sv.c
+ Now keeps one potential arena "on tap", but doesn't use it unless there's
+ demand for SV headers. When an AV or HV is extended, its old memory
+ becomes the next potential arena unless there already is one, in which
+ case it is simply freed. This will have the desired property of not
+ stranding medium-sized chunks of memory when extending a single array
+ repeatedly, but will not degrade when there's no SV demand beyond keeping
+ one chunk of memory on tap, which generally will be about 250 bytes big,
+ since it prefers the earlier freed chunk over the later. See the nice_chunk
+ variable.
+
+NETaa14999: $a and $b now protected from use strict and lexical declaration
+From: Tom Christiansen

+----------------------------------------------------------------
+Summary of user-visible Configure and build changes since 5.001:
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Yet more enhancements and fixes have been made to the Configure and
+build process for perl. Most of these will not be visible to the
+ordinary user--they just make the process more robust and likely to
+work on a wider range of platforms.
+
+This is a brief summary of the most important changes. A more
+detailed description is given below.
+
+ Slightly changed installation directories. See INSTALL.
+
+ Include 5.000 - 5.001 upgrage notes :-) (see below). You might
+ want to read through them as well as these notes.
+
+ Install documentation for perl modules and pod2* translators. You can
+ now view perl module documentation with either your system's man(1)
+ program or with the supplied perldoc script.
+
+ Many hint file updates.
+
+ Improve and simplify detection of local libraries and header files.
+
+ Expand documentation of installation process in new INSTALL file.
+
+ Try to reduce Unixisms (such as SH file extraction) to enhance
+ portability to other platforms. There's still a long way to go.
+
+Upgrade Traps and Pitfalls:
+
+Since a lot has changed in the build process, you are probably best off
+starting with a fresh copy of the perl5.002 sources. In particular,
+your 5.000 or 5.001 config.sh will contain several variables that are no
+longer needed. Further, improvements in the Configure tests may mean
+that some of the answers will be different than they were in previous
+versions, and which answer to keep can be difficult to sort out.
+Therefore, you are probably better off ignoring your old config.sh, as
+in the following:
+
+ make -k distclean # (if you've built perl before)
+ rm -f config.sh # (in case distclean mysteriously fails)
+ sh Configure [whatever options you like]
+ make depend
+ make
+ make test
+
+This, and much more, is described in the new INSTALL file.
+
+Here are the detailed changes from 5.002beta1 to 5.002b2 in
+reverse chronolgical order:
+
+-------------
+Version 5.002beta2
+-------------
+
+This is patch.2b2 to perl5.002beta1.
+This takes you from 5.002beta1h to 5.002beta2.
+
+Renaming this as beta2 reflects _my_ feeling that it's time to
+wrap up things for the release of 5.002.

+Version 5.002b1h
+-------------
+
+This is patch.2b1h to perl5.002beta1. This is mainly a clean-up
+patch. No progress is made dealing with memory leaks or
+optimizations, though I have used #define STRANGE_MALLOC to
+work around at least some problems.
+
+Index: Configure
+
+ Upgraded to metaconfig patchlevel 60.
+
+ Add in usesafe variable to include or exclude the Safe extension.
+
+ Test for sigaction().
+
+ Check for pager. This was actually accidental since perldoc.PL
+ mentions $pager and metaconfig has a unit to check for the
+ user's pager. In retrospect, I decided the Configure check
+ didn't do any harm and some extension writers might decide to

+ Add in POSIX.pod. I didn't include Dean's mkposixman tool because
+ it seemed to confuse MakeMaker, and I didn't want to manually fix
+ the POSIX/Makefile.PL file today.
+
+ Renamed minimod.PL. The idea is as follows: I'd like to reserve
+ the .PL suffix for files that are extracted during build time, and
+ then can be deleted after installation. That is, it will be
+ analogous to the .SH suffix. For example, h2xs.PL creates
+ h2xs, and a 'make realclean' will remove the h2xs. Minimod.PL
+ was an exception to this pattern. Eventually, the .PL dependencies
+ will be generated automatically, just as the .SH dependencies are
+ now.
+
