Try for smarter (more portable) skip criteria in Encode's piconv.t.
We already differ from upstream, which skips when PERL_CORE is set.
Since we apparently think we can run it in core now, it seems like
we ought to sort out the proper skip criteria before sending it
upstream.
Craig A. Berry [Sun, 11 Oct 2009 22:45:02 +0000]
No longer need to skip t/comp/opsubs.t #22 on VMS.
And it's a good thing since the skip infrastructure was pulled
out from under us with
6b077bebea000af2a5477d50d7604bab33ee75c2.
The Win32 TODO probably still doesn't work and will need to be
implemented locally without the require of test.pl.

Nicholas Clark [Sun, 11 Oct 2009 14:05:58 +0000]
MakeMaker::Test::Utils::perl_lib now copes with relative paths for core testing.
In the core, @INC already contains the moral equivalent of blib/lib. However,
it's a relative path (by default), so make it absolute. It's easier to KISS if
this is done *before* any change of directory, so document this, and change the
non-core case to add the absolute path of 'blib/lib' to @INC, rather than the
absolute path of '../blib/lib'.

Exclude CGI/t/fast.t from the core, as it relies on FCGI, which is not in core.
Whilst the test is designed to skip if FCGI is not present, that logic is now
broken, and even if it were fixed, the as-implemented skip count is now wrong.
We're never going to run this test, as core tests run with just the core's
libraries in @INC, so I see no reason to ship it.

Make _quote_args() return a result, rather than passing it a scalar reference.
This was the only use of scalar references in test.pl, and the only use of \
to create a reference to a scalar. We are now more robust in the face of parser
or runtime bugs.
Nicholas Clark [Fri, 9 Oct 2009 20:03:17 +0000]
Avoid using ++, op= and anon hash constructors in the testing code.
{} could be misparsed, ++ has a lot of internal implementation "magic" that we
don't need, but don't want to trip us up if it isn't working, and op= isn't
necessary when we already rely on the more general $a = $b op $c working.

Move the require './test.pl' to the end of t/comp/hints.t
Ideally tests in t/comp wouldn't use require, as require isn't tested yet, but
this test really needs runperl(), and really wants to live in t/comp/hints.t,
so place it at the end, so that any catestrophic failure only fails the last
test. We don't use any other functionality of t/test.pl
This test uses hard-coded test numbers, but I'm not convinced that it would be
correct to re-write it to use an automatically incrementing counter, as that
wouldn't fail in an obvious fashion if some compile-time blocks ran out of
order. What we have *will* fail in an informative fashion if compile time
blocks do not run correctly.

Add 'package NAME VERSION' syntax
This patch adds support for setting the $VERSION of a namespace
when the namespace is declared with 'package'. It eliminates the
need for 'our $VERSION = ...' and similar constructs. E.g.
package Foo::Bar 1.23;
# $Foo::Bar::VERSION == 1.23
There are several advantages to this:
* VERSION is parsed in *exactly* the same way as 'use NAME VERSION'
* $VERSION is set at compile time
* Eliminates '$VERSION = ...' and 'eval $VERSION' clutter
* As it requires VERSION to be a numeric literal or v-string
literal, it can be statically parsed by toolchain modules
without 'eval' the way MM->parse_version does for '$VERSION = ...'
* Alpha versions with underscores do not need to be quoted; static
parsing will preserve the underscore, but during compilation, Perl
will remove underscores as it does for all numeric literals
During development of this, there was discussion on #corehackers and
elsewhere that this should also allow other metadata to be set such as
"status" (stable/alpha) or "author/authority". On reflection, those
metadata are not very well defined yet and likely should never be
encoded into Perl core parsing so they can be freely changed in the
future. (They could perhaps be achieved via a comment on the same line
as 'package NAME VERSION'.)
Version numbers, however, already have a very specific definition and
use defined in the core through 'use NAME VERSION'. This patch merely
provides appropriate symmetry for setting $VERSION with the exact same
parsing and semantics as 'use'.
It does not break old code with only 'package NAME', but code that
uses 'package NAME VERSION' will need to be restricted to perl 5.11.X.
This is analogous to the change to open() from two-args to three-args.
Users requiring the latest Perl will benefit, and perhaps N years from
now it will become standard practice when Perl 5.12 is targeted the
way that 5.6 is today.
The patch does not prevent 'package NAME VERSION' from being used
multiple times for the same package with different version numbers, but
nothing prevents $VERSION from being modified arbitrarily at runtime,
either, so I see no urgen reason to add limitations or warnings so
long as Perl uses a global $VERSION variable for package version
numbers.
I am posting this patch to the p5p list for discussion and review. If
there seems to be general assent (or lack of dissent), I will go ahead
and commit the patch to blead.
