Nicholas Clark [Sat, 24 Nov 2007 22:37:38 +0000]
Nick's a muppet (*and* perforce branching is hard, or at least hateful,
in as much as a branch spec is merely a shorthand - it's actually all
a flat namespace underneath). So this shouldn't be here, but it's all
due to a transcription typo on my part in the integrate command.
Whereas the branch spec I carefully made is valid, but no $expletive
use in actually creating the $expletive branch.
Doesn't excuse my mistake. But does explain it.

Create a branch for code changes to XS code that 5.8.x needs, which

Nicholas Clark [Sat, 24 Nov 2007 11:40:28 +0000]
Eliminating the duplicate logic in S_method_common() and
Perl_gv_fetchmethod_autoload() is clearly TODO.
Move the paragraph
"strcat(), strcpy(), strncat(), strncpy(), sprintf(), vsprintf()"
to the section "Tasks that need a little C knowledge" as it doesn't
need any XS knowledge.
