Fixed XSUB CONSTSUB alias (44,45,... PR #228) (atoomic)
and anonymous CVs for 5.22 (#246, #305)
Proper utf8 support for gv_fetchpv, gv_stashpv and cv_get,
cache gv_stashpv calls.
Fix 5.22 for empty hash keys, share_hek("") (272, GH#249)
Fixed refcounts for shared hek's, fixing the notorious unshare_hek assertions
since 5.10 (GH #251, #255). See 1.06: "Had to disable -O1 -fcog (pv_copy_on_grow)
on 5.10 and higher until I find out how to fool S_unshare_hek_or_pvn. This fixes
all C -O1 and -O2 tests. Warn about this."
Fix Inf/NaN support for C (GH#287)
Fix handling of READONLY hashes in 5.22, i.e. use feature (GH#250)
Support custom op Devel_Peek_Dump, added with 5.20 (GH#274)
Defer regex compilation to new init1 for SWASHNEW (GH#273)
Support unicode labels (upstream B bug) (GH#318)
Skip unneeded init-time lexwarn checks,
support optimized cperl PERL_SUPPORT_STATIC_COP (cperl #70)
Fixed overload stringify broken since 5.18 (GH #219)
by adding a mro_isa_changed_in() to the overloaded stash.
Support multiple stash ENAMES, needed since 5.14 (GH #331)
This fixed many old 5.14 limitations. (Added to our version of B)
Support %^H, storing the hints_hash (features, pragmas) (GH#220)
This fixed many old 5.14 limitations.
Improve MATCH once (m??) handling with reset, find PMOP from
the Regexp dynamically (GH#252)
Bump refcounts of dynamic get_cv refs (#293). Fixes Coro in global destruction.
Skip more XS defined POSIX constants: all that start with 'M' (GH#335, #345)
One more "Eval-group not allowed at runtime" fix (GH#137, GH#346)
* CC (1.16_01): Encode unicode labels (GH#318)
* Stackobj (1.12_01): fix Inf/NaN support for CC (GH#287)
* t/CORE: versioned the core tests and moved to a external submodule
perl11/p5-coretests on github. (GH#332)

* C: Protect against empty SV ptr in SV magic (\0) with $` with 5.20 (#370)
Save new pmop (?{}) code_list with 5.18 (#372)
Unset PL_use_safe_putenv as in perlmain, which initializes PL_origalen properly,
which fixes setting long a $0 string (#194)
Force Moose when only Class::MOP is loaded to give the needed path hint to XSLoader,
when "Assuming xs loaded $stashname".

re-initialize compile-time internal ima pointers (#359)
Skip saving %IO::Handle for *STDOUT, which bloated 5.18 (#361)
Fix XS boot of Class::MOP without Moose, and generalize it to other
xs-loaded modules, which just call bootstrap Module. (#350, #364)
Earlier xs_init for Encode similar to attributes (hack, fixes #32 regression)
Use the system malloc for data being system free'd: cop_warnings,
PMOP->op_pv, sv_debug_file, needed for certain DEBUGGING options.
Fixes Attribute::Handler free errors (#362)
Strip binary BM chunk from comppad names < 5.8.8 (#363)
Save some CvXSUBANY values, esp. relocate any_ptr if possible:
POSIX::is*, DBI, List::MoreUtils::*_iterator.
The any_i32 values are already set in the boot section of the XS.
Fixed initialization of foreign Encodings (#365),
fixed initialization of old Encode versions < 2.58 also (#305)
* CC (1.16): Strip binary BM chunk from comppad names (CC names) < 5.8.8 (#363)
* perlcc (2.20): Strip wrong version-less -I<site_perl> (#366)

1.49 2014-07-12 rurban
* C: Changed IO::Socket::SSL warning to recommend >= 1.995.
1.996 even has some perlcc specific usage documentation (#317)
Fix PerlIO::scalar XS bootstrap forced by __DATA__ (#360)
We sometimes missed it
1.48 2014-07-11 rurban
Fixed C walker and 5.18-5.20 Bytecode.
This is the major version which cPanel will use for 5.14.4. With the next
versions we'll start working on -m and buildcc, to split packages into shared libs.
And use B::CC and/or rperl compiled modules selectively.
* C: Make revised -fwalkall the default. Fixes missing dumped method-only packages (#348)
Always save all user-loaded packages. Skip only compiler-loaded packages if
not used by user code. The compiler loads and dumps now additionally only the
heavy parts for utf8 and bytes, and utf8 for m///i, and AnyDBM for dbmopen,
PerlIO::Scalar for __DATA__ handles, and Coro::State::_jit if required, but
nothing else.
Fix for missing RTLD_NOLOAD on BSD, needed for run-time remap of compile-time
XS symbols via dlsym (#351)
Special-case XS loading of Moose.xs from Class::MOP (#350)
Better fix for mult. match once by checking OP_MATCH with ONCE flags in C.xs also (#274)
but there are still some platforms without pmop->op_pmregexp in the C.xs detection runloop
Add op_lastsib bit for 5.21.2
Changed IO::Socket::SSL warning as our patch was rejected upstream.
Need to maintain now a fork cPanel::IO::Socket::SSL to be able to use compiled
IO::Socket::SSL servers. (#317)
* Stackobj (1.12): Harmonize RV checks (fixes cc 105 -O1 and -O2)
* Bytecode (1.16): Replace each %hash with foreach keys in walksymtable also (#307)
Do not store main_cv->START, empty optree since 5.18
Add op_lastsib for 5.21.2, but sort still broken with PERL_OP_PARENT
* Assembler (1.12): error if a PUT method misses an argument
* perlcc (2.19): -B produces again -H bytecode, runnable without -MByteLoader.
Fix default output name from a.outexe to a.exe on a windows-based OS.
* Makefile.PL: fix installation of cc_runtime.h for B::CC
1.47 2014-06-11 rurban
Fixed Bytecode for 5.18. Fully support 5.18 and 5.20 now.
Greatly reduce code size for C and esp. CC, by including less unneeded dependencies.
* C: detect new Encode >2.58 compile-time usage (#305, RT #94221)
Fix mro maybe::next:: detection (#326)
Fix %INC cleanup logic. Delete packages from %INC only if they were really not saved,
and add packages to %INC which were saved and not just marked for saving. (#340)
Fix lot of skip package logic and consistency parts. Much less packages are now saved
in general which leads to smaller and faster code.
Avoid compile-time compiler internal reloads and redefinitions.
Special-case %warning::Bits on -O3 to not SEGV when changing warnings on run-time loads
on compile-time saved -fconst-string warnings.
Add experimental -fwalkall to add all wanted packages recursively with maxdepth 3.
No tests yet.
Add time and version on top of C source code. Also for CC.
Fix lexical subs for threaded perls (#130, #341)
Add special fixes for Coro: reload Coro jit and SvREADONLY_off some of its XS symbols (#293)
Fix "Eval-group not allowed at runtime" errors since 5.18 (#137),
by settting HINT_RE_EVAL for re-eval groups when compiling the QR
Fix for readonly magic hashes, usually found since 5.20 (#273)
Fix Can't locate object method "bootstrap_inherit" via package "DynaLoader" (#125)
again, as the improved walker now strips DynaLoader from simple one-liners like
'use Clone' and the DynaLoader detection was too late. Do it now earlier.
* ByteLoader (0.11): fixed filter -H problem with 5.18 (#339)
Disabling the PerlIO_binmode(PL_RSFP, IoTYPE_RDONLY, O_BINARY, 0); hack for [perl #86186]
"Changing filters to be textmode, not binary" fixed the Bytecode problems since 5.18
* perlcc (2.18): Avoid -H for bytecode > 5.18
New --check option
* t/asmdata.t: signicant enhancements
* t/CORE: add mro and re core tests, only mro/isarev.t is unstable, and several re-eval
tests using variables are skipped and unsupported.
1.46 2014-05-14 rurban
Added global destruction, improved -O4 and CC, fixed mro, @-, $/ $\, Net::DNS, ...
Added mro and re core testsuite.
* C: reset PL_stack_sp on init (was one too far). no effects on code.
Implement global destruction via sv_clean_objs and my_curse on -O3, resp.
prepend static svs PL_sv_arenaroot for sv_clean_objs with a fake sv_list[0].
(#197, #208, #254, #280)
Call DESTROY methods for all our global static SVs (i.e. "global destruction"),
fixes #197, #280, #282
Increment GV->FORM refcounts as they cannot be destructed, analog to CV
Call PL_exitlist functions with -O3
Make the lexical cop_warnings pointer dynamic, because on cv_undef (scope exit,
assign, exit, die, ...) CvROOT and all its kids are freed, ignoring op_latefreed.
The content of the warning is still a static string - and leaks on perl, but
we don't care.
-fwarn-sv is now always set, just not with MSVC on Windows. The warnings are then
directly set, not in a tight loop afterwards, because the value is needed for
the dynamic init.
Fixed lexical warnings on 5.8 (pWARN_STD .. pWARN_NONE)
Improve -O4 by keeping all CvSTART cops
Keep internal packages if used in the source code, e.g. mro (#300)
Fix the order of PerlIO_cleanup, after global destruction (#302, #303)
Since 5.18 padlists are now all dynamic, due to undef issues in non-local exits (#304)
Add -fno-dyn-padlist to -O4 to keep static padlists on 5.18.
Dynamic padlists are needed to prevent from cv_undef crashes on static padlists
when cleaning up the stack on non-local exits, like die or exit or subs on the
compile stack as with Attribute::Handler (#169, #304). Previously only END block
function padlists were dynamic (#298).
Add run-time remap of compile-time XS symbols via dlsym (#305, RT #94069)
Net::DNS includes Encode::XS ascii_encoding, but also init the 3 other encoding ptrs.
Add a fast path for d_dlopen + i_dlfcn systems (i.e. Windows goes the slow init2 route)
Detect new Encode-2.58 which stores encodings better to handle proper
compile-time usage (#305, RT #94221)
Add special SV associations for $/, $@ and $\ (#306, #256)
Save @ISA for all included packages, esp. DynaLoader dependencies (#308)
Replace each %hash with foreach sort keys (#307)
Set ${^GLOBAL_PHASE} with -O3 for END and DESTRUCT (#197, #208)
Do not store invalid GvCV symbols, only cv or &sv_list entries (#313)
Support GvFORM pseudo CVs (B::FM objects) on 5.10 (#149)
Support local $/ = "somestring" (only used empty values before) (#314),
A regression from 1.43
Support local $\ = "somestring" (#318), also a regression from 1.43
Fix special 5.6. associations for $, $\ as they are no SVs there (#306)
Fix wrong caching of internal LEXWARN symbols (#322)
Warn on bad IO::Socket::SSL versions 1.956-1.983 which would SEGV if used as server (#317)
Support __DATA__ blocks in packages without printing wrong warnings (#310)

Support mro c3 (#316)
Support @- @LAST_MATCH_START, the array of the last submatches (#281, #220, #295)
Workaround a 5.18 de-optimization which disabled ++PL_sv_objcount on bless
by adding it if a DESTROY method exists. This will fail since 5.18 if DESTROY
is added at run-time. (#208, #197)
Add new init0 section to initialize -fppaddr ops before init, not afterwards. (#330)
Needed to call utf8::SWASHINIT at init with CALLREGCOMP and /i
Avoid duplicate PL_utf8_tofold ToCf swash initialization with 5.18 (#330)
* CC (1.15): Skip saving non-existing methods analog to B::C 1.43_06 (CC test 50)
Fix failing CopFILE_free and CopSTASH_free in END blocks with threads (#296, CC test 48)
Handle duplicate function names, like multiple END blocks or anon functions (#297)
Replace each %hash with foreach sort keys (#307)
* Bytecode (1.15): Replace each %hash with foreach keys (#307)

1.45 2014-02-11 rurban
* t/issue281.t: fix wrong test ($[ vs $])
1.44 2014-02-10 rurban
added adjusted CORE testsuite for 5.14. passes for 5.14.4-nt, not for 5.18.2-nt
(cPanel code_monkeys)
still missing in general are:
- global destruction (use lexicals!),
- attribute handlers,
- compile-time perlio layers
* C: Fix -O3 with ~ and ~~ formatstrings (#277)
Fix SvLEN and PV ptr for empty shared hash keys (#272)
Use the natural @dl_modules boot order, just put attributes to the front (#259)

Skip saving defined(&cv) subs (#96)
Fix format STDOUT/STDERR (#238, #239, #277, #284, #285, #283)
Save now empty bodyless subs if they exist, for signal handlers,
prototypes declarations and cvrefs (#251, #159, #235, #246, #270, #271, #275, #279)
Fix PVMG PV overwriting the RV, overload sub (#273)

1.43 2014-01-15 rurban
new 5.16, and partial 5.18, 5.20 and windows support.
Many more fixes and testcases.
Bytecode is still broken on 5.18, esp non-threaded. 5.20 looks pretty good though.
* C: Fix -u<module> without file extension.
With hek do not drop FAKE, only for const pv.
Fixed $$ ($PID) to be dynamic, issue 108. Thanks to flexvault for reporting this.
Fixed double precision to 16 digits. The nbody shootout test passes now.
Fixed refcounts of *ENV, issue 111.
Fixed wrong boot_ arg for the xs version check with --staticxs
Better fix for overwriting of @ARGV <O3, test c_argv:1 and c_allow_opts.t:1
Fixed refinition warnings of XS CONSTSUB. Ignore them as they are
loaded later.
Add $dlmodule::VERSION as 2nd arg to boot_$dlmodule resp. $dlmodule::bootstrap
to get rid of the pesky Invalid version format error in xs_version_bootcheck
if the $VERSION had already version magic attached. (no testcase, hard to repro)
perl 5.16.0 shipped a slightly broken B without cop_stashlen. As workaround
we do not support utf8 stashes nor null bytes in stashes on 5.16.0 threaded.
Fixed Null COP storage for 5.16 and 5.17
Fix amagic_generation which was removed with 5.17
Fix ALLOW_PERL_OPTIONS: add -e behind all processed options, not before
Fixed HvAUX init. Previously only with magic hashes, now on all OOK hashes (OOK+SHAREKEYS)
e.g. %warning::Bits
Added support for new PADLIST type since 5.17.4 (with xpadl_id) and 5.17.6 (without)
$^X returns now the real executable name, not just perl or perl.exe
Adjust COW string lengths to hold the COW_REFCNT byte at the end
Fix unicode string CUR and LEN (#142, #162)
Fix unicode hashkeys (HEK) mostly (#200), but not yet testc.sh 2001 (compile-time
stored utf8 heks)
Save HvTOTALKEYS at run-time as max added to the number of run-time added keys (#178)
Fix UV uvuformat on 32bit -Duse64bitint (#145)

Fixed wrong REGEXP length for compiled QR data (#143)
Fixed wrong -O3 comparison of strings to numbers (#138,#141, branch new-cog), unified
PV handling, disabled -fcog replaced by -O3 -fconst-strings
Fixed NUL-byte handling in strings by using B::SV->PV instead of PVX (#237)
Storing now bareword filehandles (#148,#149)
Do not create GvGP at all. This also removes the need for newGP() (Windows/AIX)
use Config does not include B anymore, Internals::V now in __ANON__ package
Fixed handling of empty - not successfully autoloaded - CVs (#235, #159, ...)
by storing the SV and XPVCV but ignoring it and defer to run-time get_cv()
Unify handling of static and dynamic strings, use ptr_undef throughout instead
of NULL vs &PL_sv_undef (save_pv_or_rv => savesym, cur, len, pv, static)
Restore $^H, the numeric value of global warnings flags (#193,#207,#243)
Restore more missing globals: ${^UNICODE} ${^UTF8LOCALE} $; $\ $, $/ $" $|
$^A $^L $: $^H $^R $% $- $= if set in a BEGIN block or via cmdline (#256,#231)
Restore even deprecated vars $] $# $* (#171)
Fix HvAUX memory corruption, accessing HvAUX beyond HE fields, esp. with threaded perls.
Initialize now HvAUX backref and mro_meta fields.
Do not boot internal core XS packages twice, refer to internal XS functions dynamically
and do not link to them. Fixes fix Windows/AIX with strict linking.
Defer dynaloaded GvCV initialization after dl_init()
Fixed storage of non-special lexical warnings (#258 warnsize-i258)
Fixed storage of shared heks, support IsCOW_hek (i.e. method names)
Support new ReANY since 5.17.6 (#258 reg_temp_copy)
Support stash symtab magic for PMf_ONCE m?? and reset (#188)
Fixed POSIX overflow constants warnings for DBL_MAX,DBL_MIN,LONG_MIN,LONG_MAX (#262)
Support user-defined static_ext modules, which are already booted from core.
Add more DynaLoader::dl_debug output (set PERL_DL_DEBUG=1)
Enforce -ffold on an ucfirst op or $INC{'unicore/To/Title.pl'} (#242)
Mark empty but overloaded packages (#172). This is merely workaround for reduced testcases.
Set PadnamelistMAXNAMED(comppad_name) needed since 5.19.3 for eval string (#268)
Add new option -fno-delete-pkg to control if to ignore compiler-only dependent packages,
compiler-independent packages are now always saved. Save those package names at Makefile.PL
in @B::C::Flags::deps.
* perlcc (2.14): new option --dryrun, -v5 does not -Dsp,-v
new option -f passthru to C and CC
* perlcc (2.15): fixed default --spawn: use waitpid which was broken for parallel builds.
fixed warning Prototype mismatch: sub main::gettimeofday: none vs () at perlcc line 261
improved --version
added --perlopts to handle -DALLOW_PERL_OPTIONS
* perlcc (2.16): changed output name rules:
Without given output file name we use the name of the input file (in the subdir)
or with -e a.out resp. a.exe and a randomized intermediate C filename.
If the input file is an absolute path on non-windows systems use the basename.
* CC (1.13): Use the B::C integer and double precision logic (ivx, nvx).
Fixed double precision to 16 digits. The nbody shootout is now 2x faster than perl.
Added optimizations: -fno-magic, -fno-autovivify, -faelem
Detect "no autovivification;" pragma.
New -fno-taint, -fomit_taint is deprecated
Fix amagic_generation which was removed with 5.17
Use new perl6 type names: int, num, str. double and string are deprecated.

Optimized away 0=default op and gp flags and pointers
Optimized away default sv_refcnt=1 (GV not), and skip redundant bytecodes
Set PadnamelistMAXNAMED(comppad_name) needed since 5.19.3 for eval string (#268)
* ByteLoader (0.10): set sv_refcnt to 1 in newsv to skip most defaults
* Assembler (1.11): allow "newpadlx 0"
* Disassembler (1.12): use B::Concise op_flags and private_flags
* Stash (1.03): fix compilation for 5.8.8 and below: gv_fetchsv missing
* t/perldoc.t: perlcc fails with 5.8 because Cwd disturbs the
fragile method package finder for File::Spec. Use cc_harness.
1.42 2012-02-01 rurban
stable up to 5.14
* 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
* t/issue95.t: added, isa methods not found
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
