Reverse integrate Malcolm's chanes into local
repository, then import result back into my view
of Malcolm's repository.
Builds and passes (most) tests with GNU C++/Solaris
and Borland C++, Win32.

Malcolm Beattie [Fri, 7 Nov 1997 18:12:36 +0000]
Change pp_tie and pp_dbmopen to use perl_call_sv instead of a
DIY pp_entersub (in preparation for AUTOLOAD change). dbmopen
not tested. ofslen now maps to thr->Tofslen in thread.h. Added
missing #ifdef USE_THREADS around some DEBU_L statements in die().
Building without USE_THREADS fails quite a lot of tests. It looks
as though the move to per-thread magicals must be missing some
#ifdef USE_THREADS.

p4raw-id: //depot/perl@206
Malcolm Beattie [Thu, 6 Nov 1997 14:31:38 +0000]
Per-thread magicals now stored in their own thr->magicals and keyed
more directly. cvcache and oursv become ordinary struct thread
fields instead of #defined thr->Tfoo ones. SvREFCNT_inc now checks
for 0 again. Main thread initialisation done by new function
init_main_thread instead of (now fixed) new_struct_thread.
p4raw-id: //depot/perl@205
Malcolm Beattie [Wed, 5 Nov 1997 17:18:18 +0000]
Per-thread magicals mostly working (and localisable). Now getting
intermittent occasional "Use of uninitialized value" warnings
which may be due to some op flag black magic I've broken.

Malcolm Beattie [Fri, 31 Oct 1997 18:05:31 +0000]
Half way through moving per-thread magicals into per-thread fields
and the associated new OP_SPECIFIC and find_thread_magical stuff.
perl will compile but plenty of the magicals are still broken.
p4raw-id: //depot/perl@195
Nick Ing-Simmons [Fri, 31 Oct 1997 01:43:49 +0000]
Convert miniperl sources to ANSI C. Several passes of
GNU C's 'protoize' plus a few hand edits.
Will compile miniperl with gcc -x c++ (i.e. treat .c a C++ files)
Does not link seems gcc's C++ does not define a symbol for
const char foo[] = "....";
i.e. with empty [].

# We must look both in @INC for library modules and in PATH

Unfortunately, searching PATH for installed perl executables like
pod2man is INCORRECT. perldoc should start by searching the
directory it was executed from, which might not be in the PATH
at all.

perldoc diffs: don't search auto - much faster
Give this a try. It causes unsuccessful searches to run about
3 times as fast on my machine. Not exactly a speed demon but
at least you don't have time to get up and make coffee.
I tried adding caching to stop the repeated readdir in the
case-insensitive matching subroutine, but a) it only lopped off
another 20% and b) the patch made a kind of a Frankenstein thing
out of the subroutine, so c) I will try to write a better one
later when I have time.

fix poor t/op/runlevel.t test
This patch fixes the Can't "goto" outside block test. Before, the
test only hit the desired error if the system sort did a compare
where $a was 0, which is not guaranteed (and does not occur on at
least one system.) Now both arguments are tested.

5.004m4t1: perlbug: NIS domainname gets into wrong places

No. And I recall we have been flamed heavily in the past for using
`domainname` at all and I'm surprised that we still do.
I'd suggest such a patch instead:

Identify t/*/*.t test failing because of file permissions
tim> I've added
tim> system("find t -name '*.t' -print | xargs chmod +x");
tim> to my Porting/makerel script. So the problem should not reappear.
That doesn't help for the patch. The perl5.004m4t1.patch.gz contained
touch t/lib/dosglob.t
but no
chmod +x t/lib/dosglob.t
Short term I'd recommend Ilya's one-line patch to t/TEST because it at
least saves us debugging time. Stupid me lost over an hour not
understanding the reason for the failure. Here it is:

eg/sysvipc/ipcsem bug, new hints/bsdos.sh
There appears to be a bug in the example ipcsem with the number of
arguments to the SYSV IPC semop() function -- the POD's agree that
it only takes two arguments now.
The version of hints/bsdos.sh below has been cleaned up and
updated for the next BSD/OS release.

tests fail if localhost/loopback address not defined
Subject: HPUX Perl problem
Larry:
I did a sh Configure -des after downloading perl5.004_03.
This was done on workstation running HPUX 10.20.
All looked normal.
Then I did a make and everything also looked normal.
However the test resulted in:
lib/io_sock.......Bad file number at ./lib/io_sock.t line 55.
FAILED at test 2
lib/io_udp........Can't call method "sockname" without a package or
object reference at ./lib/io_udp.t line 35.
FAILED at test 2
lib/odbm..........Bad free() ignored at ./lib/odbm.t line 63.
Bad free() ignored at (eval 4) line 2.
