-*- change-log -*-
Started on CPAN with B-C-1.04_12
The Perl compiler was in CORE from alpha4 until Perl 5.9.4
and worked quite fine with Perl 5.6 and 5.8
1.42 2012-02-01 rurban
* C: Improved finding methods in parent classes (Warning: method not found),
Save @ISA of those child classes.
Re-implement and simplify my_share_hek, now in terms of share_hek.
PL_strtab hack gone. This fixed the shared_hek destruction
problems.
Turn off CvDYNFILE needed since 5.15.4, use static CvFILE. (DateTime)
* perlcc: perlcc -stash does not hang anymore, renabled t/e_perlcc.t -stash section
* Stash (1.02): '-xs' does not load B anymore.
Now in seperate directory Stash
* Stash/Stash.xs: new with CvIsXSUB() to get rid of B, polluting the stashes.
* Stash/Makefile.PL: new
* Bytecode (1.13): support shared hek (42,43)
* ByteLoader (0.09), ByteLoader/bytecode.h, bytecode.pl: support shared hek (42,43),
added xpvshared
1.41 2012-01-30 rurban
* t/modules.t: Fixed syntax error
1.40 2012-01-30 rurban
static PerlIO Layers (e.g. __DATA__)
* C: fixed deferred %INC, %INC is now stored and cleaned up at the end.
Improved __DATA__ handle as PerlIO layer, PerlIO::scalar now
loaded static (test 15).
Defer eval section after dl_init (e.g. for PerlIO::scalar) (test 15)
Check for XSLoader now at the very end (test 27)
Fixed MUTABLE_CV for 5.10.0
Improved 5.8 method lifting for not-found methods a bit (5.8. perldoc.t)
* Bytecode: fixed test 22
Cannot locate object method "fileno" via package "IO::File"
* Makefile.PL: readonly $lib fix for MSWin32
* t/testc.sh: silence ulimit -m warnings + errors
1.39 2012-01-25 rurban
* C: improved eval AUTOLOAD, avoid some POSIX and Storable .al compile-time
side-effects such as creating files and dirs. First try loading
.al files, only then eval the dangerous AUTOLOAD.
* Makefile.PL: typo in -fav-init2 independent_comalloc detection.
Added LICENSE key, META and the files were not enough to please pause.
1.38 2012-01-24 rurban
* t/issue93.t: fixed syntax error
1.37 2012-01-24 rurban
Enabled copy-on-grow strings >= 5.10.
Save %main:: stashes w/o -fno-stash. Switched to git, added github mirror
Fixed hashes and share_hek, when mixed compiled and load-time for >5.8.
Stability: This release is the first which passes almost all tests and
is used in production with --staticxs -O3, but copy-on-grow hek's and
further logical improvements (deferred %INC cleanup) fail so far, so it's
still considered unstable.
* C: save stashes optionally with -fstash, but only values which are also
stashes to avoid a second walker besides savecv, and thus do not
walk into unneeded territory; B::STASHGV (46, issue 79)
New -fno-stash with -O2 to omit stashes which are rarely needed.
Fixed vulnerability to oCERT-2011-003 style DOS attacks. Do not
pre-compute hashes for hv_store(), use fresh random hash seed.
But shared_hek() has a limited API which does not allow this.
UNIVERSAL methods were not correctly stored, which led to method not
found at run-time errors.
New debug option -Dr "runtime" to add debug output to the .c code (as in CC)
New option -Upackage to skip package, mark_skip()
Re-implemented sharepvn via share_hek() and SvLEN=0 (issue 71),
Special FAKE+READONLY handling: LEN = 0 if pv_copy_on_grow or shared_hek.
Fixed !SvIsCOW_shared_hash + FAKE+READONLY conflict (test 13, issue 82).
Shared COW hashkeys which are optimized to static const strings
may not be marked as IsCOW (remove SVf_FAKE).
Re-implemented CORE share_hek with hash=0
Otherwise shared HEK's (post-5.10) come up with duplicate entries
for the same keys; one compile-time created and one run-time created with
a different random hash seed. E.g. observed by such warnings
"Prototype mismatch: sub bytes::length (_) vs (_)"
Added Internals::hv_clear_placeholders XS name exception, similar
to version:: (issue 83)
Store CV prototypes, issue 81 and issue 84 for empty () vs NULL prototypes.
Fixed 5.15.2 hang at hfree_next_entry (issue 78)
Defer writing of READONLY hash keys since 5.15 (issue 88)
Enable -fcog copy-on-grow with static strings for >= 5.10
Improved Errno vs. *main::! and Tie::Hash::NamedCapture vs
*main::+ / - logic (issue 90)
Updated version XS methods, default to noop for (...
Strip version object overload from XS packages (issue 91), XS needs plain PVs
Do not initialize CONSTSUB XS methods twice, boot does it for us
Pass proper cv to XS boot_$name, fixes boot of
Tie::Hash::NamedCapture (issue 86)
Fixed share_hek strings with -O1 (test 13)
Fixed bootstrapping the XS/core part of attributes,
thereby fixed threads tests 41-43.
Fixed most 5.8.[45] problems by ignoring aelemfast SPECIAL pads.
Fixed magic -> PTR when SV (>5.6)
Moved -fsave-sig-hash from -O3 to -O0. You need -fno-save-sig-hash
to disable it.
Removed -fno-stash from -O2, -fno-stash is now the default. You
need -fstash to add stashes. It caused not understood problems.
Fixed saving %SIG signals and more -2 SV magic (issue 92)
Adjusted IO logic, was erronously skipped (issue 59)
inc_cleanup: save only those %INC keys which are stored.
Save ext/mro only if the ext mro methods were loaded, and
utf8_heavy.pl similarly.
Force loading of -u arguments to avoid runtime loading.
Call boot_core_PerlIO, mro, UNIVERSAL and xsutils.
Warn on unsavable IO objects from BEGIN blocks.
Fixed >&STD... handles (issue 93),
i.e. Test::Builder, Test::NoWarnings and parts of the core testing.
See http://blogs.perl.org/users/rurban/2012/01/what-to-avoid-in-begin-blocks.html
Add B::COP::stashflags workaround, >5.15.4 threaded.
Add fix for lost PL_regex_pad, 5.15 threaded.
* CC (1.12): allow overriding of -f<opt> B::C flags.
Skip internal packages with mark_skip (fixes cc_o2 tests).
Move -ftype-attr from -O2 to -O1.
Always define int, double and string package versions, parallel to types.
* Bytecode (1.12): detect Tie::Hash::NamedCapture (issue 90) -
works only partially.
Fixed >&STD... handles (issue 93)
Support -d debugging without -MOd
* Stackobj (1.00_03): add UL or L to overlong integers. doubles
not yet
* perlcc (2.13): added options -O[1-4], -u, -U, --Wc, --Wl, --version,
Keep cfile if output is empty.
Change -o output C file directory and name with -S or -c:
Before in current directory, now in -o directory.
Before with input name, now with -o name.
Add -rpath for all --staticxs libs if supported.
Changed verbosity levels and output wording.
* bytecode.pl: added xio_ifp
* bytecode.h: added BSET_xio_ifp
* META.yml: remove from MANIFEST and repo, let make dist
autogenerate it.
* t/test.pl, t/TESTS: changed test 46 (Exporter:: and other stashes in
%main:: stash) to cover issue 79.
use Exporter; print q(ok) if %main::Exporter::

not fully fixed. Encode::Alias unusable.
fixed empty HV assertions since 5.15, new HV default keys = 7

stashes, also workaround adding already deleted DynaLoader.

leaving them in could lead to unexpected crashes

Added logic to include all possible unsupported ops, all holes.
bytecode table checked for 5.6.1, 5.6.2, 5.8.0, 5.8.1-5.11
Note, that I found official and contradicting 5.6.1 releases.
ActiveState 5.6.1.626 had no op_children, the unix release tarball
with 5.6.1 (called Trial 1) still has it.

Disable the Bytecode compiler for 5.6. Fixed besides the __DATA__ handle
(test 15) all remaining 5.8 C bugs.
* C.pm: assign the PVX of GV also for empty stashes (main::) to avoid
destruction failures at Perl_pad_undef() SvPVX_const(namesv) == '&'.

* bytecode.c: byteorder swab only if same length.
1234 => 4321, 12345678 => 87654321.
Skip a 0x prefix for byteorder in the header. Perl 5.6 had this.
* Assembler.pm (0.07_06): 5.6 byteorder fix: until 5.6 the
$Config{byteorder} was falsely dependent on ivsize, we need longsize.
Add 0x to byteorder in header again, as with 5.6.
* t/testc.sh: do not run old leftovers. some 5.6 optimizations
