Subject: Full LONG_MAX & co. patch over 5.003_05
X-Git-Url: http://git.shadowcat.co.uk/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5c9fa16ebdebb977b01ccd7490c7b1c4fe1e3b8e;p=p5sagit%2Fp5-mst-13.2.git

Full LONG_MAX & co. patch over 5.003_05

This patch contains the changes I've collected for the various _MAX issues
since 5.003_05. No patches issued between 5.003_05 and this one should be
applied, use this one instead.

The effect is to remove the CHAR_* and I8_* constants (which are
ambiguous) and to explicitly cast all of the constants.
