Skip the scope name checks if PL_scopestack_name is NULL.
It's possible that someone has built a module with -DDEBUGGING, but they're
using it against a perl built non-DEBUGGING, in which case PL_scopestack_name
will be NULL. Better to skip the checks than to SEGV.
Nicholas Clark [Wed, 18 Nov 2009 13:21:18 +0000]
PL_scopestack_name needs to be present, -DDEBUGGING or not.
-DDEBUGGING and not need to be binary compatible with each other. Fixes the
test failures in ext/re caused by
d343c3ef45381352 for threaded builds without
-DDEBUGGING.

Update CPANPLUS::Dist::Build to cpan version 0.44
Changes for 0.44
================
Make the prereq resolving fallback to _build/ querying if the 'prereq_data' action fails.
The edge-case of a distribution that is bundling an older version of Module::Build exposed this
flaw. Thanks to Johan Vromans for questioning the test report for EekBoek.
Nicholas Clark [Wed, 18 Nov 2009 09:52:12 +0000]
Correct the arguments to MBTest->tmpdir() to reflect implementation changes.
David Golden [Wed, 18 Nov 2009 05:52:18 +0000]
Updated Module::Build to 0.35_08
0.35_08 - Mon Nov 16 22:38:28 EST 2009
Bug fixes:
- Multiple tests were failing due to dependency problems. Author
dependencies have been largely removed from core 'requires' into
optional features. Feature prereq detection and messaging have been
expanded and bugs on older Perls have been removed.
0.35_07 - Sat Nov 14 17:14:39 EST 2009
Bug fixes:
- Auto-detection of abstract and author fixed for mixed-case POD headers
(RT#51117) [David Wheeler]
- resume() was not restoring additions to @INC added in Build.PL
(RT#50145) [David Golden]
- When tarball paths are less than 100 characters, disables 'prefix'
mode of Archive::Tar for maximum compatibility (RT#50571) [David Golden]
0.35_06 - Fri Nov 13 14:51:28 EST 2009
Enhancements:
- Added experimental inc/ bundling; see Module::Build::Bundling for
details. [David Golden and Eric Wilhelm]
- Clarified that 'apache' in the license attribute indicates the Apache
License 2.0 and added 'apache_1_1' for the older version of the license
(RT#50614) [David Golden]
Bug fixes:
- Merging 'requires' and 'build_requires' in Module::Build::Compat could
lead to duplicate PREREQ_PM entries; now the highest version is used
for PREREQ_PM. (RT#50948) [David Golden]
- Module::Build::Compat will now die with an error if advanced,
non-numeric prerequisites are given, as these are not supported by
ExtUtils::MakeMaker in PREREQ_PM [David Golden]
- Made MYMETA generation non-fatal if fields required for META.yml
are missing [David Golden]
- Added Pod::Simple to requirements for manpage support; avoids
problems if a user has a broken Pod::Man/Pod::Simple. (RT#50081)
[David Golden]
- Won't die if installed Pod::Readme is broken [David Golden]
Other:
- Fixed Module::Build::Notes POD [David Golden]
- Some commands had become silent by default, so added a few short status
messages so users know something actually happened [David Golden]
- Cleaned up Changes file formatting [David Golden]
- Removed most PERL_CORE customizations from test files due to
reorganization of dual-life modules in core (RT#49522) [David Golden]
0.35_05 - Wed Oct 28 17:20:59 EDT 2009
Bug fixes:
- Fix test failure in t/actions/installdeps.t when $^X is not the default
perl [David Golden]
- Work around $VERSION numbers in ActiveState with multiple underscores
that prevent Module::Build from installing on Win32 [David Golden]
- Fix bug cleaning compatibility Makefile when older ExtUtils::Manifest is
installed [David Golden with help from David Cantrell]
Other:
- Suppressed more warnings from tests [David Golden]
- Add provisional support for 'package NAME VERSION' syntax added in
Perl 5.11.1 [David Golden]
0.35_04 - Fri Oct 23 11:20:41 EDT 2009
Bug fixes:
- Fix test failure if IPC::Cmd isn't installed [David Golden]
Other:
- Suppressed warning messages from various tests [David Golden]
0.35_03 - Wed Oct 21 21:20:59 EDT 2009
*** API CHANGE ***
- The prepare_metadata() method used to take a YAML::Node object as an
argument for modification. The method now takes no arguments and just
returns a hash reference of metadata. [David Golden]
Enhancements
- Command line options may be set via the PERL_MB_OPT environment
variable (similar to PERL_MM_OPT in ExtUtils::MakeMaker)
Bug fixes:
- Updated PPM generation to PPM v4 (RT#49600) [Olivier Mengue]
- When c_source is specified, the directory scan will include additional,
less-common C++ extensions (RT49298) [David Golden]
- When module_name is not supplied, no packlist was being written; fixed
by guessing module_name from dist_version_from or the directory name
(just like ExtUtils::Manifest does without NAME) [David Golden]
- Bumped IO::File prereq to fix binmode failures in PPMMaker on Perl
prior to 5.8.8 [David Golden]
Other:
- Replaced use of YAML.pm with YAML::Tiny; Module::Build::YAML is now
based on YAML::Tiny as well [David Golden]
- Reduced amount of console output under normal operation (use --verbose
to see all output) [David Golden]
0.35_02 - Mon Sep 7 22:37:42 EDT 2009
Enhancements:
- Added 'needs_compiler' property. Defaults to true if XS or c_source
exist. If true, ExtUtils::CBuilder is also added to build_requires.
[David Golden]
- File::ShareDir automatically added to 'requires' if 'share_dir' is set
[David Golden]
- Added 'Build installdeps' action to install needed dependencies via
a user-configurable command line program. (Defaults to 'cpan'.)
[Eric Wilhelm]
Bug fixes:
- Failure to detect a compiler will now warn during Build.PL and be a
fatal error when trying to compile during Build. (RT#48918) [David
Golden]
- Fixed directory sorting failure in share_dir.t [David Golden]
- Property defaults that are data structures were being assigned as
references to new objects. Changed so that defaults are cloned instead.
(This mostly affects testing, which often creates multiple objects in the
same process) [David Golden]
- Simplified error message on exit under use_tap_harness [suggested by
David Wheeler]
- Fixed typemap search to use a dist-level typemap if a typemap is not
found in the directory with the *.xs file; (was manifesting as warnings
in Perl 5.6 tests) [David Golden]
Other:
- Replaced guts of new_from_context(). Build.PL is now executed in a
separate process before resume() is called. (This is generally only of
interest to Module::Build or toolchain developers) (RT#49350) [David
Golden, Eric Wilhelm, Ken Williams]
- Revised test helper classes to fix potential bugs and add new features
to make writing tests simpler and easier. Changes incorporated into
t/README.pod and t/sample.t as examples for new testing. [David Golden]
0.35_01 - Mon Aug 31 12:11:10 EDT 2009
Enhancements:
- Generates MYMETA.yml during Build.PL (new standard protocol for
communicating configuration results between toolchain components)
[David Golden]
- Added 'share_dir' property to provide File::ShareDir support;
set automatically if a directory called 'share' exists
[David Golden]
Bug fixes:
- Fix the t/destinations.t fix. [David Golden, with thanks to Eric Wilhelm]
- Fix recursive test files in generated Makefile.PL (RT#49254) [Sawyer X]
- Guard against trying :utf8 when :utf8 isn't available
- The "test" action now dies when using the 'use_tap_harness'
option and tests fail, matching the behavior under Test::Harness.
(RT#49080) [initial patch from David Wheeler; revised by David Golden]
Other:
- Added t/README.pod and t/sample.t to guide developers writing new tests
[David Golden, with some code from Eric Wilhelm]
- Module::Build::Compat 'passthrough' style has been deprecated. Using
'passthrough' will issue warnings on Makefile.PL generation. See
Module::Build::Compat documentation for rationale.

Fix crash in refactored lexer internals
Commit
f0e67a1d29102aa9905aecf2b0f98449697d5af3 changed the control
flow so that PerlIO_tell(PL_rsfp) could be called when PL_rsfp was
NULL, which produces a crash at least on Windows with the MSVCRT
runtime.
This change moves the detection if PL_rsfp is NULL or not closer to
the location where is is actually tested, which gets rid of the
crashes. I however have *not* verified if the changes in control
flow in
f0e67a1d are otherwise correct or not.

Inline PL_no_symref_sv into its users. Deprecate the visible global variable.
As the core no longer needs this fixed string outside of pp.c, it seems daft to
make it public just in case any module wants to use it. Modules that do should
provide their own inline copy in future.
Also restore the visible global PL_no_symref_sv back to the original format
specificiation (of 5.10.0 and earlier).
Nicholas Clark [Sun, 15 Nov 2009 15:41:02 +0000]
Inline PL_no_symref into pp_entersub. Deprecate the visible global variable.
As the core no longer needs this fixed string in more than one place, it seems
daft to go to the overhead (and cost) of making it public in case any module
wants to use it. Modules that do want to use it should provide their own inline
copy in future.
Also restore the visible global PL_no_symref back to the original format
specification (of 5.10.0 and earlier), as an extra %s has the potential to
cause SEGVs or worse if not spotted at compile time.
Zefram [Sun, 15 Nov 2009 13:25:50 +0000]
lexer API
Attached is a patch that adds a public API for the lowest layers of
lexing. This is meant to provide a solid foundation for the parsing that
Devel::Declare and similar modules do, and it complements the pluggable
keyword mechanism. The API consists of some existing variables combined
with some new functions, all marked as experimental (which making them
public certainly is).

Convert pad_check_dup() to static linkage, and call it from Perl_pad_add_name().

Nicholas Clark [Sat, 14 Nov 2009 19:36:21 +0000]
Refactor common code paths from Perl_pad_add_name() into S_pad_add_name_sv().
The only user of the pad_add_FAKE flag was S_pad_findlex(), so move the relevant
code there from Perl_pad_add_name(), and have S_pad_findlex() call
S_pad_add_name_sv() directly. This eliminates the pad_add_FAKE flag completely.
David Golden [Thu, 12 Nov 2009 15:46:30 +0000]
Change perl -v version format
New format:
This is perl 5, version 11, subversion 1 (v5.11.1) ...
The rationale for this change is that the Perl 5 interpreter will never
increment PERL_REVISION from 5 to 6, so we want people to start focusing
on the PERL_VERSION number as most significant and PERL_SUBVERSION as
equivalent to a "release number". In other words, "perl 5" is a
language, this is the 11th version of it, and the second release of that
version (counting from zero). Among other things, this makes the
output of -v and -V more consistent.
The old v-string style is included for familiarity and usage in code.
For builds from git, it will include the same extended format as it
did before, e.g. "(v5.11.1-176-gaf24cc9*)"

Revert core fixes for IO-Compress following IO-Compress update
With commit
1725f55ba78fb58489ea39e2bc0cc1faffd32275 IO-Compress now puts
its .pm files in lib rather than archlib for perls later than 5.11.1, so
the core can now do likewise given that blead will next be released as
5.11.2, i.e. revert the Configure part of
4cc80fc4cbbd82e20f7b14b68abb53d552076022
and revert
f4a6a713802da1b781d7108503156fa3a0fe219e.
This change should not be merged into 5.10.x because IO-Compress will
continue to put its .pm files into archlib for the sake of anyone upgrading
a 5.10.x installation in-place.

Support $! stringification of socket error codes on Windows.
The winsock error codes from WSAGetLastError() are stored by
Perl in errno, and there is some code in win32_strerror() that
would stringify them, but that code is never called when Perl
is built with the default WIN32IO_IS_STDIO setting.
This patch enables the win32_strerror() override unconditionally
and also fixes a potential memory corruption issue by using
the FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS flag to ignore any parameter
substitution codes that may be embedded in the error message.
This now works as expected:
C:\git\perl>perl -Ilib -MPOSIX -E "$!=POSIX::EWOULDBLOCK; say $!"
A non-blocking socket operation could not be completed immediately.

The message ‘localtime(...) too large’ is not documented in perldiag.
The attached patch adds it. I know it’s technically ‘%s(%.0f) too

‘gmtime’. I also had to modify diagnostics.pm to support %.0f, and I
added a test, but I used a hack with STDERR that would make debugging
very difficult to anyone else adding tests.

flock() on Windows should set proper errno numbers.
It used to set errno to GetLastError(), which is from an
incompatible set of error codes. That doesn't make any
sense, especially since the GetLastError() value is also
available at the Perl level via $^E.
It is important for autodie.pm that flock() will set
$! to WSAWOULDBLOCK when GetLastError() returns
ERROR_LOCK_VIOLATION because that is the value POSIX.pm
now returns for POSIX::EWOULDBLOCK.
Jan Dubois [Fri, 13 Nov 2009 01:14:59 +0000]
flock() should return EWOULDBLOCK instead of EAGAIN.
POSIX requires fcntl() to return EAGAIN or EACCES, whereas BSD
requires flock() to return EWOULDBLOCK. On most systems EAGAIN
and EWOULDBLOCK use the same number, but on some (e.g. Linux on
PA-RISC) they do not.

Add mingw64 support
Hi,
Using the attached patch to the blead source (as of a few hours ago), I can
build perl with the following OS/compiler/make combos.
On 32-bit XP:
MSVC++ 7.0 / dmake (uses win32/makefile.mk)
MSVC++ 7.0 / nmake (uses win32/Makefile)
Borland C++ 5.5.1 / dmake
mingw.org's gcc-4.3.0 / dmake
mingw.org's gcc-3.4.5 / dmake
mingw-w64.sf's 32-bit gcc-4.4.3 / dmake
(There's a bug with that last compiler on XP.
The perl it builds on XP hangs on XP, but runs ok if copied across to Vista.
I think this is unrelated to the patches - probably even unrelated to perl.
Without these patches perl will not even build using that last compiler.)
On 64-bit Vista:
32-bit MSVC++ 7.0 / nmake (uses win32/Makefile)
32-bit MSVC++ 7.0 / dmake (uses win32/makfile.mk)
32-bit Borland C++ 5.5.1 / dmake
mingw.org's 32-bit gcc-4.4.0 / dmake
mingw.org's 32-bit gcc-3.4.5 / dmake
mingw-w64.sf's 32-bit gcc-4.4.3 / dmake
mingw-w64.sf's 64-bit gcc-4.4.3 / dmake
mingw-w64.sf's 64-bit x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc-4.4.3 / dmake
64-bit MicrosoftPlatform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 / dmake (uses
win32/makefile.mk)
64-bit MicrosoftPlatform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 / nmake (uses
win32/Makefile)
Not all of those builds pass all tests - but where the removal of the
patches still permits perl to build, the same tests still fail. That is,
*nothing* is lost by including these patches - but there are significant
gains.
Each of the above builds was done according to the normal win32
configuration parameters - ie multi-threaded, non debug. No unusual config
settings were applied. (I did build one debug perl on Vista using
mingw-w64.sf's 32-bit gcc-4.4.3 and it built fine.)
Please feel free to apply these patches (with or without modification) -
and, yes, you're more than welcome to blame me if they cause any breakages
;-)
Of course, some of those compilers (Borland, Microsoft, and the compilers
from mingw.org) already build perl *without* having to apply any patches.
It's just the other compilers that need the patches. The purpose of testing
with Borland, Microsoft, and the mingw.org compilers is just to check that
these patches don't break them.
As a final check, I've done a build on my aging linux (mandrake-9.1) box,
gcc-3.2.2. I built with '-des -Duselongdouble -Duse64bitint -Dusedevel'. No
problem with that, either.
If there's additional testing requirements please let me know, and I'll try
to oblige.
I believe the patch applied successfully for me - see below my sig for the
output.
Cheers,
Rob

Add length and flags arguments to Perl_pad_add_name().
Currently only pad_add_STATE and pad_add_FAKE are used. The length is cross-
checked against strlen() on the pointer, but the intent is to re-work the entire
pad API to be UTF-8 aware, from the current situation of char * pointers only.

More cleanup of utfebcdic.h and utf8.h
Attached is a patch that removes from utfebcdic.h most definitions that
are common to it and utf8.h, and moves them to the common area of
utf8.h. The duplicate ones that are retained are each an integral part
of a larger related set that do differ between the headers.
Some of the definitions had started to drift, so this brings them back
into line, with a lowered possibility of future drift. In particular
the ones for the 'lazy' macros did not do quite as intended, especially
in the EBCDIC case. The bugs were a small performance hit only, in that
the macro was not quite as lazy as expected, and so loaded utf8_heavy.pl
possibly unnecessarily. In examining these, I noted that the utf8.h
definition of the start byte of a utf8 encoded string accepts invalid
start bytes 0xC0 and 0xC1. These are invalid because they are for
overlong encodings of ASCII code points. One is not supposed to allow
these, and there have been security attacks, according to Wikipedia,
against code that does. But I don't know all the ramifications for Perl
of changing to exclude these, so I left it alone, but added a comment
(and an item on my personal todo list to check into it).
I made some comment clarifications, and removed some definitions marked
as obsolete in utf8.h that are in fact no longer used.
I added some synonyms for existing macros that more clearly reflect the
use that I intend to put them to in future patches.

Tweak the GV downgrading of
f7461760 to avoid free or nearly freed GVs.
It's possible during global destruction that the GV is freed before the
optree. Whilst the SvREFCNT_inc is happy to bump from 0 to 1 on a freed SV,
the corresponding SvREFCNT_dec from 1 to 0 will trigger an assertion
failure, because the entry to sv_clear checks that the scalar is not already
freed. A check of for !SvIS_FREED(gv) turns out to be invalid, because
during global destruction the reference count can be forced down to zero
(with SVf_BREAK set). In which case raising to 1 and then dropping to 0
triggers cleanup before it should happen. I *think* that this might
actually be a general, systematic, weakness of the whole idea of SVf_BREAK,
in that code *is* allowed to raise and lower references during global
destruction, so any *valid* code that happens to do this during global
destruction might well trigger premature cleanup.

Bareword sub lookups
Attached is a patch that changes how the tokeniser looks up subroutines,
when they're referenced by a bareword, for prototype and const-sub
purposes. Formerly, it has looked up bareword subs directly in the
package, which is contrary to the way the generated op tree looks up
the sub, via an rv2cv op. The patch makes the tokeniser generate the
rv2cv op earlier, and dig around in that.
The motivation for this is to allow modules to hook the rv2cv op
creation, to affect the name->subroutine lookup process. Currently,
such hooking affects op execution as intended, but everything goes wrong
with a bareword ref where the tokeniser looks at some unrelated CV,
or a blank space, in the package. With the patch in place, an rv2cv
hook correctly affects the tokeniser and therefore the prototype-based
aspects of parsing.
The patch also changes ck_subr (which applies the argument context and
checking parts of prototype behaviour) to handle subs referenced by an
RV const op inside the rv2cv, where formerly it would only handle a gv
op inside the rv2cv. This is to support the most likely kind of
modified rv2cv op.
The attached patch is the resulting revised version of the bareword
sub patch. It incorporates the original patch (allowing rv2cv op
hookers to control prototype processing), the GV-downgrading addition,
and a mention in perldelta.

Make my_exit behave the same as the Perl exit. And add tests for it
Rationale: This makes the behaviour of my_exit consistent, so it no
longer depends on whether a subroutine was called using call_sv or as a
normal using an entersub op. Previously, the exit code was sometimes
converted to an exception.
