a2p match() faulty

While I was doing the $[ thing, I discovered a bug in a2p's handling of
the match() operator.  It uses a comma operator, which has unintended
behaviour in list context (e.g., in a print statement).  It also returns
empty string for a non-match, rather than the required 0.

RT#69616: regexp SVs lose regexpness in assignment

It uses reg_temp_copy to copy the REGEXP onto the destination SV without
needing to copy the underlying pattern structure. This means changing
the prototype of reg_temp_copy, so it can copy onto a passed-in SV, but
it isn't API (and probably shouldn't be exported) so I don't think this

Treat any (and all) octects after the BOM (or all, if there was no BOM) as
initial read data for the filter, and call it to convert them to the first
line, reading more if necessary. This correctly handles the "problem" that
UTF-16LE read as a line, on the assumption that it's ASCII/ISO-8859-*/UTF-8/etc
will be truncated after the first octect of the "\n\0" pair that is "\n"

MAD-only code in S_swallow_bom() duplicated the actions of sv_setpvn()

Remove it. All its writes were byte-for-byte identical with the memory they
overwrote. The bugs it attempts to fix are real, but caused by the design and
implementation of other parts of this routine and S_utf16_textfilter().

revert to 5.8.x semantics for \s \w and \d

revert ba9ac1759cb6e7a5e6883c85edd0b450061b5ccb

Changing the semantics of \w \s and \d breaks too much
and Jesse wants to do a rollout. This disables the new
semantics until we can get all the details worked out.

15 years agoPorting/makerel no longer massages win32 files during the final tarball build process
Jesse Vincent [Mon, 19 Oct 2009 16:45:21 +0000]
Porting/makerel no longer massages win32 files during the final tarball build process

I _believe_ that this change will mean that our shipped tarball will
contain all files exactly as they are in the repo - The only difference
will be in file permissions.

I'm told that git can version the execute bit on files. If I'm feeling
especially adventurous, I may write a porting test to ensure that the
right files (and only the right files?) are marked +x in git and then
remove that bit from Porting/makerel. I wouldn't mind it if someone beat
me to that.
