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.

Nicholas Clark [Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:18:32 +0000]
Remove the entry about removing Perl_deprecate()
As a minor C function, I feel that at most it should be in "changed internals".
However, as it was not part of the public API, and searches showed that nothing
was using it, likely nothing is going to break if it goes. And if any naughty
code does break:
a: It will be at link time
b: It will be easy to find the cause from git log
I also feel that it's worth removing it, as existing perldeltas are the most
obvious guide for new volunteers in terms of "write something like this".
So having bad examples isn't going to help educate future authors.

perlvar $1 clarification
$1 is currently documented as being set by the "last pattern match".
But it is left alone by unsuccessful pattern match attempts (continuing
to hold a value from an earlier successful match).
Saying "last successful pattern match" clarifies this; it's also the
phrase used to document $&.
Second, the entry for $1 in perlvar doesn't actually contain the text
"$1" anywhere. As such, doing man perlvar then using /\$1 to search for
it in less doesn't locate it (though does match other places in that
file where $1 happens to be used).

ckWARNreg() and ckWARNregdep() now use string concatenation, like their brethren
They had been concatenating "%s" REPORT_LOCATION, as they weren't passing in a

analyser will be able to see this).

Remove Test-Simple's 00compile.t from core
It required a hand-edited version of Test-Simple's MANIFEST due to the
exclusion of a .pm file from core, but we shouldn't have edited versions
of CPAN files in core. The presence of the MANIFEST file also caused
warnings from the Makefile.PL due to other files being excluded from core,
so rather than further editing of the MANIFEST it is simplest to just
remove it and the test that requires it.

Add Perl_ck_warner(), which combines Perl_ckwarn() and Perl_warner().
Replace ckWARN{,2,3,4}() && Perl_warner() with it, which trades reduced code

However, if we're now in the L1 or L2 cache when we weren't previously, that's
still going to be a speed win.
