Remove MAB stuff, since it's now in ccflags.
Keep 5.003's RCS info.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 16 Aug 1996 10:45:14 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: writemain.SH

an older auto_init mechanism.)
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 19 Aug 1996 00:52:35 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: utils/h2ph.PL
Make h2ph architecture-independent by using Config at run-time
rather than extraction time.

Include <unistd.h>.
Use correct types for safe*alloc and safefree functions.

If a regex supplied to split() contains paranthesized subpatterns
that can result in null matches, perl coredumps.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:23:01 +0000]

(The latter two are especially for NetBSD.)
Don't assume sys/time.h and sys/select.h can't coexist.
Use Pause macro.

Use memcmp instead of bcmp even when we don't care about order.
Add support for tied filehandles.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:13:55 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: pp.c
Add support for tied filehandles.
If a regex supplied to split() contains paranthesized subpatterns
that can result in null matches, perl coredumps.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:08:57 +0000]
Fix a minor nit regarding Exporter.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:19:05 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: pod/perlipc.pod
Fix typo.
Untaint port number.
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 19 Aug 1996 22:41:17 +0000]
Update.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 16 Aug 1996 10:02:03 +0000]
Delete duplicate line.
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 19 Aug 1996 00:41:46 +0000]
Restore use of Safefree() macro.
Perl 5 Porters [Wed, 21 Aug 1996 02:08:36 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: perlio.h
Try to document the various #defines a bit. This is far from
finished.
Remove a lot of trailing whitespace. (It's of no consequence, but
but I'm not going to redo the patch just to put back in the trailing
whitespace either.)
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:21:17 +0000]
Fixes to support non-std stdio.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:24:27 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: perl.h
No longer prefer bcmp slightly for comparisons that don't care
about ordering.
Rely on Configure setting SH_PATH.
Change the function name to Pause() instead of pause() to
avoid potential prototype problems. (This naming convention
is similar to the Fwrite and Fflush macros.)
Fix problems with each() on tied hashes.
Work around crypt prototype problem on NeXT.
Perl 5 Porters [Wed, 21 Aug 1996 22:21:56 +0000]
Include <unistd.h>
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 19 Aug 1996 00:36:12 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: mg.c
Include <unistd.h>
Use Safefree() macro instead of safefree() function with
a (possibly) incorrect cast. The whole point of the
Safefree() macro is that it does the correct cast for you.
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 19 Aug 1996 00:36:12 +0000]
Use Configure's $sh and $make_set_make variables.
Perl 5 Porters [Sat, 24 Aug 1996 23:52:03 +0000]
Add explicit '&' to avoid warnings under strict refs.
Perl 5 Porters [Sat, 24 Aug 1996 23:52:09 +0000]
Remove double 'use strict'.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 26 Apr 1996 00:57:26 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: lib/Symbol.pm
Put back in the BEGIN { require 5.002; }. The version in
5.003_02 wouldn't work in 5.002 anyway. Further, the whole
point of the construct is to catch 5.001m, so we can't use
syntax introduced after 5.001m to do that.
Perl 5 Porters [Thu, 22 Aug 1996 03:02:56 +0000]
Remove mab references.
Perl 5 Porters [Wed, 21 Aug 1996 23:38:07 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: lib/ExtUtils/MM_Unix.pm

Use memcmp even in cases where ordering doesn't matter.
Fix problems with each() on tied hashes.
Perl 5 Porters [Tue, 20 Aug 1996 08:51:58 +0000]
New hint file.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 01:15:08 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/titanos.sh
Include sfio in libswanted.
Don't set libpth any more.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 19 Jul 1996 01:51:04 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/sunos_4_1.sh
Add brief note about GNU as and ld.
Don't include <unistd.h>
Add notes about WHOA THERE messages.
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 15 Jul 1996 20:46:37 +0000]
Don't include <unistd.h>
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 16 Aug 1996 03:08:58 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/solaris_2.sh
Perl.h no longer prefers bcmp, so it's again ok if Configure
finds them, since perl will prefer the mem* versions anyway.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 16 Aug 1996 02:59:59 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/sco.sh
Additional notes on using icc.
Additional flags for dynamic loading.
Perl 5 Porters [Wed, 21 Aug 1996 03:36:04 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/os2.sh
Try to update to reflect newer shared libperl stuff.
I probably goofed :-).
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 01:09:02 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/next_4.sh
Get rid of extraneous isnext_4 variable. Configure and
Makefile.SH will use $osname and $osvers instead.
Build up $mab dynamically based on available architectures.
Absorb $mab into ccflags and ccdlflags. I hope that will
cover everything. (Configure should automatically remove
the -arch stuff from cppflags.)
Configure now knows next4 needs to use a shared libperl.5.so.
Allow users to use -Dprefix.
Perl 5 Porters [Wed, 21 Aug 1996 23:26:09 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/next_3.sh
Build up $mab dynamically. Since $mab isn't used anywhere
anymore, this is useless. However, $mab was never used for
next_3.sh anyway, so there's been no change in functionality.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 01:12:22 +0000]
Use glibpth instead of libpth.
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 12 Aug 1996 23:31:37 +0000]
Update where to find dld.
Perl 5 Porters [Thu, 20 Jun 1996 22:12:12 +0000]
Configure now tests gcvt() more thoroughly.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 01:11:32 +0000]
Include some info on cc -n32 compile.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 01:12:52 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/epix.sh
Use glibpth instead of libpth. This allows Configure to
add local directories, such as /opt/local/lib, etc.
Perl 5 Porters [Wed, 21 Aug 1996 03:32:01 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/dynixptx.sh
Fix typo in comment.
Configure will now automatically detect shared libperl stuff.
Perl 5 Porters [Wed, 21 Aug 1996 03:28:07 +0000]

qmaxmem hint doesn't apply to gcc.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 01:37:29 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: hints/README.hints
Remove out-of-date info.
Document a bit about how hint files work.
Perl 5 Porters [Tue, 20 Aug 1996 10:38:54 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: handy.h
Change safe*alloc functions to have prototypes that
match the system's malloc and free types. That is, use
Malloc_t instead of char *, and Free_t instead of void.
This is necessary so . . .
Safefree cast matches type of free() whether it's perl's
malloc/free or the system's malloc/free.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:11:47 +0000]
Fix problems with each() on tied hashes.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 21 Jun 1996 01:45:33 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: ext/util/make_ext
Typo change.
Get rid of unused altmake.
Perl 5 Porters [Tue, 20 Aug 1996 09:30:46 +0000]
Change the Mymalloc to match Perl_malloc in perl.h.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:01:52 +0000]
Add support for tied filehandles.
Perl 5 Porters [Sat, 24 Aug 1996 23:56:18 +0000]
Clean up docmentation installation errors.
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 19 Aug 1996 00:12:56 +0000]
Expand warning at the top.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:33:47 +0000]
Auto-generated.
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:23:01 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: doop.c
No longer prefer bcmp over memcmp when order doesn't matter.
Support bit operations on strings longer than 15 bytes.
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 19 Aug 1996 00:10:02 +0000]
Possibly Include <signal.h> and <unistd.h>
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 02:02:03 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: config_h.SH
Updated to match current Configure and config_h.SH.
Some rearrangement of parts has occurred due to new
dependencies in the metaconfig units.
Include full descriptions of ARCHLIB, OLDARCHLIB, PRIVLIB,
SITEARCH, and SITELIB. Previous versions just included the
~-expanded names (with unhelpful descriptions). No functionality
is changed, but maybe it's a little better documented now.
Perl 5 Porters [Sat, 24 Aug 1996 22:16:23 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: config_H
Updated to match current Configure and config_h.SH.
Some rearrangement of parts has occurred due to new
dependencies in the metaconfig units.
Perl 5 Porters [Mon, 19 Aug 1996 00:36:25 +0000]
Replace old README.os2 with more up-to-date os2/README.
Perl 5 Porters [Wed, 21 Aug 1996 23:35:13 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: dev/null
New file describing all the config.sh variables.
Eventually, I hope to fill this directory with other useful
stuff.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 02:43:28 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: Makefile.SH
Support the new simplified shared libperl mechanism.
Use new $make_set_make directive.
Remove redundant libperl Make variable.
Remove unnecessary MAB variable.
Remove dependency of minitest on lib/Config.pm, since it could
well have been a failure of configpm that inspired testing
miniperl in the first place!
Perl 5 Porters [Sun, 25 Aug 1996 00:36:58 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: MANIFEST
Updated. 5.003_02 introduced some massive patches, mostly
due to spacing changes. I didn't bother to sort them all out;
I just started with 5.003's MANIEFST.
Perl 5 Porters [Thu, 22 Aug 1996 03:11:00 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: INSTALL
Add note about space requirements.
Update to match Configure changes (Opcode vs. Safe,
useperlio, useshrplib, etc.)
Reorganize the structure of some of the hints.
Miscellaneous clarifications.
Perl 5 Porters [Fri, 23 Aug 1996 02:02:03 +0000]
perl 5.003_03: Configure
Relaxed warning about ksh on exotic machines.
Changed usesafe to useopcode.
Add search for gzip and zip.
Look more carefully for $sh (the Bourne-ish shell).
Use that info to set $startsh correctly.
Change prompts for PerlIO interface. See INSTALL
for how this is supposed to work. The default is
still the same as in 5.003_02, namely don't use
any fancy new PerlIO stuff.
Don't look for sigvec() since we don't actually use it.
(Plus, it used to print an alarming misleading message about
race conditions.)
Look for stdio's _filbuf under the possible names of
_filbuf, __filbuf, and _fill.
New $useshrplib variable to control whether we build a shared
libperl.so. The name of the library is in $libperl.
Always install it in $installarchlib/CORE/$libperl.
Check for <sys/resource.h> and <sys/wait.h> for NetBSD.
Replace old $altmake stuff with newer autoconf-ish
$make_set_make, which checks if $make sets $(MAKE). Now you
choose an alternate make with sh Configure -Dmake=gmake (or
whatever).
Remove 'ln' for the list of essential commands. Simulate
it with 'cp' if necessary.
Change `logname` prompts to handle extra gratuitous spaces in
Ultrix output.
Autodetect os2.
Fix silly bug in checking for fully-qualified names in /etc/hosts.
Generalize Gconvert tests. Give correct and more useful
error messages.
Use $obj_ext instead of literal '.o' in the dynaloader test.
Include appropriate header files in bcopy() and memcpy()
tests. Note whether memmove is available.
Check whether struct sigaction works (needed for Solaris 2.5
with -Xc).
Include appropriate header files for randbits test.

perl 5.003_01: [patch re-organisation and patch series introduction]
This is my patch _01 to perl5.003.
This patch contains the last few months' worth of bugfixes and
additions, since the patch to version 5.003 was deliberately kept
small. A summary of major revisions and additions can be found
in the diff of the Changes file from the standard distribution,
which is the first diff in the patch below.
The detailed changes to each file are described at the head of the diff
for that file, on lines beginning with #~, so you can extract the
comments by saying perl -ne 'print if /^(?:#~|diff)/'.
This patch is a series of context diffs, since some people have
mentioned that their copy of patch can't handle unidiffs.
Please apply it to a clean copy of perl5.003 using patch -p1 -N.
Before applying the patch, please execute the following commands,
or their moral equivalent; you may feed this patch to /bin/sh in
order to do so.
Enjoy.
