Subject: change#4705 breaks code that interpolates $], so leave string value
X-Git-Url: http://git.shadowcat.co.uk/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5089c844b09b4bf70ddcc69a1b2c187381eabf0c;p=p5sagit%2Fp5-mst-13.2.git

change#4705 breaks code that interpolates $], so leave string value
of $] as it was for compatibility (and perhaps introduce $^V or similar
for the utf8 representation, maybe?)
