  note :
    All functions that were defined in parrot/interpreter.h have been renamed in order

    For example, function C<Parrot_new> has been renamed to C<Parrot_interp_new>.

    Also, "Parrot_interp_" has been prepended to all functions that didn't begin with
    "Parrot_" for consistency. For example, function C<allocate_interpreter> has been
    renamed to C<Parrot_interp_allocate_interpreter>.

    Other than the above changes, the below functions were also renamed to make their
    purpose more clear:
        * C<interpinfo> -> C<Parrot_interp_info>
        * C<Parrot_int_get_interp_from_pmc> -> C<Parrot_interp_get_from_pmc>

  name : 'Socket.read(nb) with nb > 512'
  eligible : '4.8'
  note :
    The Socket .read method with an nb argument greater than the current SO_RCVBUF buffer size (typically 512) will since 4.8 behave like POSIX read() and recv(), returning only up to nb bytes. You need to loop until the wanted number of bytes is received.
