Modules and Pragmata
Updated Modules and Pragmata
• Module::CoreList has been upgraded from version 5.20220520 to 5.20230423.
Configuration and Compilation
• "Configure" probed for the return type of malloc() and free() by testing whether declarations for those
functions produced a function type mismatch with the implementation. On Solaris, with a C++ compiler,
this check always failed, since Solaris instead imports malloc() and free() from "std::" with "using"
for C++ builds. Since the return types of malloc() and free() are well defined by the C standard, skip
probing for them. "Configure" command-line arguments and hints can still override these type in the
unlikely case that is needed.
Testing
Tests were added and changed to reflect the other additions and changes in this release.
Selected Bug Fixes
• An eval() as the last statement in a regex code block could trigger an interpreter panic; e.g.
/(?{ ...; eval {....}; })/
• An "eval EXPR" referring to a lexical sub defined in grandparent scope no longer produces an assertion
failures.
• Writing to a magic variables associated with the selected output handle, $^, $~, $=, "$-" and $%, no
longer crashes perl if the IO object has been cleared from the selected output handle.

perl5: Address CVE-2021-36770
perl5: Compare inode numbers as string. Bump revision. PR pkg/55997 Internal stat() function for perl stores inode number as string, if it cannot be represented by host's integer. However, unfortunately, some components compare them as integer. Therefore, if 64-bit integers are not supported, files cannot be handled, whose inode number is larger than UINT32_MAX. Usually, inode numbers on real filesystems are well below UINT32_MAX. But, inode numbers larger than UINT32_MAX are assigned for tmpfs on LP64 kernels. This results in build failures for perl on COMPAT_NETBSD32 if working directory is tmpfs, and perl-64bitint and friends are not specified. Now, inode numbers are compared as string, which works just fine even if 64-bit integers are not supported. Cherry-picked from upstream. See https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/18788 and related pull-requests for more details.

Platform Support
Platform-Specific Notes
Win32
The locale tests could crash on Win32 due to a Windows bug, and
separately due to the CRT throwing an exception if the locale name
wasn't validly encoded in the current code page.
For the second we now decode the locale name ourselves, and always
decode it as UTF-8.
Selected Bug Fixes
o Setting $) now properly sets supplementary group ids, if you have
the necessary privileges.
o "readline @foo" now evaluates @foo in scalar context. Previously,
it would be evaluated in list context, and since readline() pops
only one argument from the stack, the stack could underflow, or be
left with unexpected values on it.
o sv_gets() now recovers better if the target SV is modified by a
signal handler.
o Matching a non-"SVf_UTF8" string against a regular expression
containing Unicode literals could leak an SV on each match attempt.
o "sprintf("%.*a", -10000, $x)" would cause a buffer overflow due to
mishandling of the negative precision value.
o "scalar()" on a reference could cause an erroneous assertion
failure during compilation.

perl: updated to 5.30.0
what is new for perl v5.30.0
Core Enhancements
Limited variable length lookbehind in regular expression pattern matching is now experimentally supported
Using a lookbehind assertion (like "(?<=foo?)" or "(?<!ba{1,9}r)" previously would generate an error and
refuse to compile. Now it compiles (if the maximum lookbehind is at most 255 characters), but raises a
warning in the new "experimental::vlb" warnings category. This is to caution you that the precise behavior
is subject to change based on feedback from use in the field.
See "(?<=pattern)" in perlre and "(?<!pattern)" in perlre.
The upper limit "n" specifiable in a regular expression quantifier of the form "{m,n}" has been doubled to 65534
The meaning of an unbounded upper quantifier "{m,}" remains unchanged. It matches 2**31 - 1 times on most
platforms, and more on ones where a C language short variable is more than 4 bytes long.
Unicode 12.1 is supported
Because of a change in Unicode release cycles, Perl jumps from Unicode 10.0 in Perl 5.28 to Unicode 12.1 in
Perl 5.30.
For details on the Unicode changes, see <https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode11.0.0/> for 11.0;
<https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode12.0.0/> for 12.0; and
<https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode12.1.0/> for 12.1. (Unicode 12.1 differs from 12.0 only in the
addition of a single character, that for the new Japanese era name.)
The Word_Break property, as in past Perl releases, remains tailored to behave more in line with expectations
of Perl users. This means that sequential runs of horizontal white space characters are not broken apart,
but kept as a single run. Unicode 11 changed from past versions to be more in line with Perl, but it left
several white space characters as causing breaks: TAB, NO BREAK SPACE, and FIGURE SPACE (U+2007). We have
decided to continue to use the previous Perl tailoring with regards to these.
Wildcards in Unicode property value specifications are now partially supported
You can now do something like this in a regular expression pattern
qr! \p{nv= /(?x) \A [0-5] \z / }!
which matches all Unicode code points whose numeric value is between 0 and 5 inclusive. So, it could match
the Thai or Bengali digits whose numeric values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.
This marks another step in implementing the regular expression features the Unicode Consortium suggests.
Most properties are supported, with the remainder planned for 5.32. Details are in "Wildcards in Property
Values" in perlunicode.
qr'\N{name}' is now supported
Previously it was an error to evaluate a named character "\N{...}" within a single quoted regular expression
pattern (whose evaluation is deferred from the normal place). This restriction is now removed.
Turkic UTF-8 locales are now seamlessly supported
Turkic languages have different casing rules than other languages for the characters "i" and "I". The
uppercase of "i" is LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH DOT ABOVE (U+0130); and the lowercase of "I" is LATIN SMALL
LETTER DOTLESS I (U+0131). Unicode furnishes alternate casing rules for use with Turkic languages.
Previously, Perl ignored these, but now, it uses them when it detects that it is operating under a Turkic
UTF-8 locale.
It is now possible to compile perl to always use thread-safe locale operations.
Previously, these calls were only used when the perl was compiled to be multi-threaded. To always enable
them, add
-Accflags='-DUSE_THREAD_SAFE_LOCALE'
to your Configure flags.
Eliminate opASSIGN macro usage from core
This macro is still defined but no longer used in core
"-Drv" now means something on "-DDEBUGGING" builds
Now, adding the verbose flag ("-Dv") to the "-Dr" flag turns on all possible regular expression debugging.
Incompatible Changes
Assigning non-zero to $[ is fatal
Setting $[ to a non-zero value has been deprecated since Perl 5.12 and now throws a fatal error. See
"Assigning non-zero to $[ is fatal" in perldeprecation.
Delimiters must now be graphemes
See "Use of unassigned code point or non-standalone grapheme for a delimiter." in perldeprecation
Some formerly deprecated uses of an unescaped left brace "{" in regular expression patterns are now illegal
But to avoid breaking code unnecessarily, most instances that issued a deprecation warning, remain legal and
now have a non-deprecation warning raised. See "Unescaped left braces in regular expressions" in
perldeprecation.
Previously deprecated sysread()/syswrite() on :utf8 handles is now fatal
Calling sysread(), syswrite(), send() or recv() on a ":utf8" handle, whether applied explicitly or
implicitly, is now fatal. This was deprecated in perl 5.24.
There were two problems with calling these functions on ":utf8" handles:
o All four functions only paid attention to the ":utf8" flag. Other layers were completely ignored, so a
handle with ":encoding(UTF-16LE)" layer would be treated as UTF-8. Other layers, such as compression
are completely ignored with or without the ":utf8" flag.
o sysread() and recv() would read from the handle, skipping any validation by the layers, and do no
validation of their own. This could lead to invalidly encoded perl scalars.
my() in false conditional prohibited
Declarations such as "my $x if 0" are no longer permitted.
Fatalize $* and $#
These special variables, long deprecated, now throw exceptions when used.
Fatalize unqualified use of dump()
The "dump()" function, long discouraged, may no longer be used unless it is fully qualified, i.e.,
"CORE::dump()".
Remove File::Glob::glob()
The "File::Glob::glob()" function, long deprecated, has been removed and now throws an exception which
advises use of "File::Glob::bsd_glob()" instead.
"pack()" no longer can return malformed UTF-8
It croaks if it would otherwise return a UTF-8 string that contains malformed UTF-8. This protects against
potential security threats. This is considered a bug fix as well.
Any set of digits in the Common script are legal in a script run of another script
There are several sets of digits in the Common script. "[0-9]" is the most familiar. But there are also
"[\x{FF10}-\x{FF19}]" (FULLWIDTH DIGIT ZERO - FULLWIDTH DIGIT NINE), and several sets for use in
mathematical notation, such as the MATHEMATICAL DOUBLE-STRUCK DIGITs. Any of these sets should be able to
appear in script runs of, say, Greek. But the design of 5.30 overlooked all but the ASCII digits "[0-9]",
so the design was flawed. This has been fixed, so is both a bug fix and an incompatibility.
All digits in a run still have to come from the same set of ten digits.
JSON::PP enables allow_nonref by default
As JSON::XS 4.0 changed its policy and enabled allow_nonref by default, JSON::PP also enabled allow_nonref
by default.
Deprecations
In XS code, use of various macros dealing with UTF-8.
This deprecation was scheduled to become fatal in 5.30, but has been delayed to 5.32 due to problems that
showed up with some CPAN modules. For details of what's affected, see perldeprecation.
Performance Enhancements
o Translating from UTF-8 into the code point it represents now is done via a deterministic finite
automaton, speeding it up. As a typical example, "ord("\x7fff")" now requires 12% fewer instructions
than before. The performance of checking that a sequence of bytes is valid UTF-8 is similarly improved,
again by using a DFA.
o Eliminate recursion from finalize_op().
o A handful of small optimizations related to character folding and character classes in regular
expressions.
o Optimization of "IV" to "UV" conversions.
o Speed up of the integer stringification algorithm by processing two digits at a time instead of one.
o Improvements based on LGTM analysis and recommendation.
o Code optimizations in regcomp.c, regcomp.h, regexec.c.
o Regular expression pattern matching of things like "qr/[^a]/" is significantly sped up, where a is any
ASCII character. Other classes can get this speed up, but which ones is complicated and depends on the
underlying bit patterns of those characters, so differs between ASCII and EBCDIC platforms, but all case
pairs, like "qr/[Gg]/" are included, as is "[^01]".

Platform Support
Platform-Specific Notes
Windows
The Windows Server 2003 SP1 Platform SDK build, with its early x64 compiler and tools, was accidentally
broken in Perl 5.27.9. This has now been fixed.
Mac OS X
Perl's build and testing process on Mac OS X for "-Duseshrplib" builds is now compatible with Mac OS X
System Integrity Protection (SIP).
SIP prevents binaries in /bin (and a few other places) being passed the "DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" environment
variable. For our purposes this prevents "DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" from being passed to the shell, which
prevents that variable being passed to the testing or build process, so running "perl" couldn't find
libperl.dylib.
To work around that, the initial build of the perl executable expects to find libperl.dylib in the build
directory, and the library path is then adjusted during installation to point to the installed library.
Selected Bug Fixes
o If an in-place edit is still in progress during global destruction and the process exit code (as stored
in $?) is zero, perl will now treat the in-place edit as successful, replacing the input file with any
output produced.
This allows code like:
perl -i -ne 'print "Foo"; last'
to replace the input file, while code like:
perl -i -ne 'print "Foo"; die'
will not.
o A regression in Perl 5.28 caused the following code to fail
close(STDIN); open(CHILD, "|wc -l")'
because the child's stdin would be closed on exec. This has now been fixed.
o "pack "u", "invalid uuencoding"" now properly NUL terminates the zero-length SV produced.
o Failing to compile a format now aborts compilation. Like other errors in sub-parses this could leave
the parser in a strange state, possibly crashing perl if compilation continued.
o See "Any set of digits in the Common script are legal in a script run of another script".

Security
[CVE-2018-18311] Integer overflow leading to buffer overflow and segmentation fault
Integer arithmetic in "Perl_my_setenv()" could wrap when the combined length of the environment variable
name and value exceeded around 0x7fffffff. This could lead to writing beyond the end of an allocated buffer
with attacker supplied data.

Updated Modules and Pragmata
o Module::CoreList has been upgraded from version 5.20180622 to 5.20181129_28.
Selected Bug Fixes
o Perl 5.28 introduced an "index()" optimization when comparing to -1 (or indirectly, e.g. >= 0). When
this optimization was triggered inside a "when" clause it caused a warning ("Argument %s isn't numeric
in smart match"). This has now been fixed.
o Matching of decimal digits in script runs, introduced in Perl 5.28, had a bug that led to "1\N{THAI
DIGIT FIVE}" matching "/^(*sr:\d+)$/" when it should not. This has now been fixed.
o The new in-place editing code no longer leaks directory handles.

perl5: updated to 5.26.2
5.26.2:
Security
[CVE-2018-6797] heap-buffer-overflow (WRITE of size 1) in S_regatom (regcomp.c)
A crafted regular expression could cause a heap buffer write overflow, with control over the bytes written.
[CVE-2018-6798] Heap-buffer-overflow in Perl__byte_dump_string (utf8.c)
Matching a crafted locale dependent regular expression could cause a heap buffer read overflow and potentially information disclosure.
[CVE-2018-6913] heap-buffer-overflow in S_pack_rec
pack() could cause a heap buffer write overflow with a large item count.
Assertion failure in Perl__core_swash_init (utf8.c)
Control characters in a supposed Unicode property name could cause perl to crash. This has been fixed.
Updated Modules and Pragmata
Module::CoreList has been upgraded from version 5.20170922_26 to 5.20180414_26.
PerlIO::via has been upgraded from version 0.16 to 0.17.
Term::ReadLine has been upgraded from version 1.16 to 1.17.
Unicode::UCD has been upgraded from version 0.68 to 0.69.
Selected Bug Fixes
The readpipe() built-in function now checks at compile time that it has only one parameter expression, and puts it in scalar context, thus ensuring that it doesn't corrupt the stack at runtime.
Fixed a use after free bug in pp_list introduced in Perl 5.27.1.
Parsing a sub definition could cause a use after free if the sub keyword was followed by whitespace including newlines (and comments).
The tokenizer now correctly adjusts a parse pointer when skipping whitespace in an ${identifier} construct.
Accesses to ${^LAST_FH} no longer assert after using any of a variety of I/O operations on a non-glob.
sort now performs correct reference counting when aliasing $a and $b, thus avoiding premature destruction and leakage of scalars if they are re-aliased during execution of the sort comparator.
Some convoluted kinds of regexp no longer cause an arithmetic overflow when compiled.
Fixed a duplicate symbol failure with -flto -mieee-fp builds. pp.c defined _LIB_VERSION which -lieee already defines.
A NULL pointer dereference in the S_regmatch() function has been fixed.
Failures while compiling code within other constructs, such as with string interpolation and the right part of s///e now cause compilation to abort earlier.
perl5: Fix CFLAGS. We need to remove -std=c89 so that compilers which default to C99 don't fail, and don't automatically add -fstack-protector flags, leave it to the user to decide via PKGSRC_USE_SSP. Fixes clang on SmartOS. Bump PKGREVISION.
perl: Remove patch-dist_Carp_lib_Carp.pm This patch is a workaround for a perl core problem. The patch has not been accepted upstream, and in its current form introduces other bugs, see https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=132448 Bump PKGREVISION.

[CVE-2017-12837] Heap buffer overflow in regular expression compiler
Compiling certain regular expression patterns with the case-insensitive
modifier could cause a heap buffer overflow and crash perl. This has
now been fixed. [perl #131582]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131582>
[CVE-2017-12883] Buffer over-read in regular expression parser
For certain types of syntax error in a regular expression pattern, the
error message could either contain the contents of a random, possibly
large, chunk of memory, or could crash perl. This has now been fixed.

[CVE-2017-12814] $ENV{$key} stack buffer overflow on Windows
A possible stack buffer overflow in the %ENV code on Windows has been
fixed by removing the buffer completely since it was superfluous
anyway. [perl #131665]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131665>
Incompatible Changes
There are no changes intentionally incompatible with 5.26.0. If any
exist, they are bugs, and we request that you submit a report. See
"Reporting Bugs" below.
Modules and Pragmata
Updated Modules and Pragmata
* base has been upgraded from version 2.25 to 2.26.
The effects of dotless @INC on this module have been limited by the
introduction of a more refined and accurate solution for removing
'.' from @INC while reducing the false positives.
* charnames has been upgraded from version 1.44 to 1.45.
* Module::CoreList has been upgraded from version 5.20170530 to
5.20170922_26.

Windows
* Support for compiling perl on Windows using Microsoft Visual
Studio 2017 (containing Visual C++ 14.1) has been added.
* Building XS modules with GCC 6 in a 64-bit build of Perl failed
due to incorrect mapping of "strtoll" and "strtoull". This has

Selected Bug Fixes
* Several built-in functions previously had bugs that could cause
them to write to the internal stack without allocating room for the
item being written. In rare situations, this could have led to a
crash. These bugs have now been fixed, and if any similar bugs are
introduced in future, they will be detected automatically in
debugging builds. [perl #131732]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131732>
* Using a symbolic ref with postderef syntax as the key in a hash
lookup was yielding an assertion failure on debugging builds.
[perl #131627]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131627>
* List assignment ("aassign") could in some rare cases allocate an
entry on the mortal stack and leave the entry uninitialized. [perl
#131570] <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131570>
* Attempting to apply an attribute to an "our" variable where a
function of that name already exists could result in a NULL pointer
being supplied where an SV was expected, crashing perl. [perl
#131597] <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131597>
* The code that vivifies a typeglob out of a code ref made some false
assumptions that could lead to a crash in cases such as $::{"A"} =
sub {}; \&{"A"}. This has now been fixed. [perl #131085]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131085>
* "my_atof2" no longer reads beyond the terminating NUL, which
previously occurred if the decimal point is immediately before the
NUL. [perl #131526]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131526>
* Occasional "Malformed UTF-8 character" crashes in "s//" on utf8
strings have been fixed. [perl #131575]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131575>
* "perldoc -f s" now finds "s///". [perl #131371]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131371>
* Some erroneous warnings after utf8 conversion have been fixed.
[perl #131190]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131190>
* The "jmpenv" frame to catch Perl exceptions is set up lazily, and
this used to be a bit too lazy. The catcher is now set up earlier,
preventing some possible crashes. [perl #105930]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=105930>
* Spurious "Assuming NOT a POSIX class" warnings have been removed.

Update to 5.22.2
Changelog:
NAME
perldelta - what is new for perl v5.22.2
DESCRIPTION
This document describes differences between the 5.22.1 release and the
5.22.2 release.
If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.22.0, first read
perl5221delta, which describes differences between 5.22.0 and 5.22.1.
Security
Fix out of boundary access in Win32 path handling
This is CVE-2015-8608. For more information see [perl #126755]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126755>.
Fix loss of taint in "canonpath()"
This is CVE-2015-8607. For more information see [perl #126862]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126862>.
Set proper umask before calling mkstemp(3)
In 5.22.0 perl started setting umask to 0600 before calling mkstemp(3)
and restoring it afterwards. This wrongfully tells open(2) to strip
the owner read and write bits from the given mode before applying it,
rather than the intended negation of leaving only those bits in place.
Systems that use mode 0666 in mkstemp(3) (like old versions of glibc)
create a file with permissions 0066, leaving world read and write
permissions regardless of current umask.
This has been fixed by using umask 0177 instead.
[perl #127322] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127322>
Avoid accessing uninitialized memory in Win32 "crypt()"
Validation that will detect both a short salt and invalid characters in
the salt has been added.
://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126922>
Remove duplicate environment variables from "environ"
Previously, if an environment variable appeared more than once in
"environ[]", %ENV would contain the last entry for that name, while a
typical "getenv()" would return the first entry. We now make sure %ENV
contains the same as what "getenv()" returns.
Secondly, we now remove duplicates from "environ[]", so if a setting
with that name is set in %ENV we won't pass an unsafe value to a child
process.
This is CVE-2016-2381.
Incompatible Changes
There are no changes intentionally incompatible with Perl 5.22.1. If
any exist, they are bugs, and we request that you submit a report. See
"Reporting Bugs" below.
Modules and Pragmata
Updated Modules and Pragmata
• File::Spec has been upgraded from version 3.56 to 3.56_01.
"canonpath()" now preserves taint. See "Fix loss of taint in
"canonpath()"".
• Module::CoreList has been upgraded from version 5.20151213 to
5.20160429.
The version number of Digest::SHA listed for Perl 5.18.4 was wrong
and has been corrected. Likewise for the version number of Config
in 5.18.3 and 5.18.4. [perl #127624]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127624>
Documentation
Changes to Existing Documentation
perldiag
• The explanation of the warning "unable to close filehandle %s
properly: %s" which can occur when doing an implicit close of a
filehandle has been expanded and improved.
perlfunc
• The documentation of "hex()" has been revised to clarify valid
inputs.
Configuration and Compilation
• Dtrace builds now build successfully on systems with a newer dtrace
that require an input object file that uses the probes in the .d
file.
Previously the probe would fail and cause a build failure.
[perl #122287] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122287>
• Configure no longer probes for libnm by default. Originally this
was the "New Math" library, but the name has been re-used by the
GNOME NetworkManager.
[perl #127131] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127131>
• Configure now knows about gcc 5.
• Compiling perl with -DPERL_MEM_LOG now works again.
Platform Support
Platform-Specific Notes
Darwin
Compiling perl with -Dusecbacktrace on Darwin now works again.
[perl #127764] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127764>
OS X/Darwin
Builds with both -DDEBUGGING and threading enabled would fail with
a "panic: free from wrong pool" error when built or tested from
Terminal on OS X. This was caused by perl's internal management of
the environment conflicting with an atfork handler using the libc
"setenv()" function to update the environment.
Perl now uses "setenv()"/"unsetenv()" to update the environment on
OS X.
[perl #126240] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126240>
ppc64el
The floating point format of ppc64el (Debian naming for little-
endian PowerPC) is now detected correctly.
Tru64
A test failure in t/porting/extrefs.t has been fixed.
Internal Changes
• An unwarranted assertion in "Perl_newATTRSUB_x()" has been removed.
If a stub subroutine definition with a prototype has been seen,
then any subsequent stub (or definition) of the same subroutine
with an attribute was causing an assertion failure because of a
null pointer.
[perl #126845] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126845>
Selected Bug Fixes
• Calls to the placeholder &PL_sv_yes used internally when an
"import()" or "unimport()" method isn't found now correctly handle
scalar context. [perl #126042]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126042>
• The "pipe()" operator would assert for "DEBUGGING" builds instead
of producing the correct error message. The condition asserted on
is detected and reported on correctly without the assertions, so
the assertions were removed. [perl #126480]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126480>
• In some cases, failing to parse a here-doc would attempt to use
freed memory. This was caused by a pointer not being restored
correctly. [perl #126443]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126443>
• Perl now reports more context when it sees an array where it
expects to see an operator, and avoids an assertion failure. [perl
#123737] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=123737>
• If a here-doc was found while parsing another operator, the parser
had already read end of file, and the here-doc was not terminated,
perl could produce an assertion or a segmentation fault. This now
reliably complains about the unterminated here-doc. [perl #125540]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=125540>
• Parsing beyond the end of the buffer when processing a "#line"
directive with no filename is now avoided. [perl #127334]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127334>
• Perl 5.22.0 added support for the C99 hexadecimal floating point
notation, but sometimes misparsed hex floats. This has been fixed.
[perl #127183] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127183>
• Certain regex patterns involving a complemented posix class in an
inverted bracketed character class, and matching something else
optionally would improperly fail to match. An example of one that
could fail is "qr/_?[^\Wbar]\x{100}/". This has been fixed. [perl
#127537] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127537>
• Fixed an issue with "pack()" where "pack "H"" (and "pack "h"")
could read past the source when given a non-utf8 source and a utf8
target. [perl #126325]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126325>
• Fixed some cases where perl would abort due to a segmentation
fault, or a C-level assert. [perl #126193]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126193> [perl #126257]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126257> [perl #126258]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126258> [perl #126405]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126405> [perl #126602]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126602> [perl #127773]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127773> [perl #127786]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127786>
• A memory leak when setting $ENV{foo} on Darwin has been fixed.
[perl #126240] <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126240>
• Perl now correctly raises an error when trying to compile patterns
with unterminated character classes while there are trailing
backslashes. [perl #126141]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126141>
• "NOTHING" regops and "EXACTFU_SS" regops in "make_trie()" are now
handled properly. [perl #126206]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126206>
• Perl now only tests "semctl()" if we have everything needed to use
it. In FreeBSD the "semctl()" entry point may exist, but it can be
disabled by policy. [perl #127533]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127533>
• A regression that allowed undeclared barewords as hash keys to work
despite strictures has been fixed. [perl #126981]
<https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126981>
• As an optimization (introduced in Perl 5.20.0), "uc()", "lc()",
"ucfirst()" and "lcfirst()" sometimes modify their argument in-
place rather than returning a modified copy. The criteria for this
optimization has been made stricter to avoid these functions
accidentally modifying in-place when they should not, which has
been happening in some cases, e.g. in List::Util.
• Excessive memory usage in the compilation of some regular
expressions involving non-ASCII characters has been reduced. A
more complete fix is forthcoming in Perl 5.24.0.

Use bash on SunOS, as pdksh (at least on x86_64) has issues for the moment.
Don't try to extract the library search path from gcc/clang. It will leak .buildlink into the final build and create a broken p5-gdbm. Bump revision.
-lnetwork is wanted for Haiku.
Due to directory style layout change, Haiku's SYSLIBPATH may not be
/boot/common/lib.
Undef it for Haiku and COMPILER_LIB_DIRS instead (also for other platforms
not set here).
XXX: all platforms should be SYSLIBPATH=${COMPILER_LIB_DIRS}, or
XXX: _OPSYS_LIB_DIRS for such platforms should be fixed.
Note CGI core module is older for www/p5-CGI-Fast.
core contains experimental-0.007
clean up "older for" notation.
Update CONFLICTS lines and add a SUPERSEDES line for p5-experimental.
Changes 5.20.0:
Experimental Subroutine signatures
subs now take a prototype attribute
More consistent prototype parsing
rand now uses a consistent random number generator
New slice syntax
Experimental Postfix Dereferencing
Unicode 6.3 now supported
New \p{Unicode} regular expression pattern property
Better 64-bit support
use locale now works on UTF-8 locales
use locale now compiles on systems without locale ability
More locale initialization fallback options
-DL runtime option now added for tracing locale setting
-F now implies -a and -a implies -n
$a and $b warnings exemption
revbump perl after update
Fix build under SCO OpenServer 5.0.7/3.2 and add workaround for empty result of nl_langinfo(CODESET). This workaround is needed for devel/gtexinfo.
Set USE_GCC_RUNTIME=yes for packages which build shared libraries but do not use libtool to do so. This is required to correctly depend upon a gcc runtime package (e.g. gcc47-libs) when using USE_PKGSRC_GCC_RUNTIME.
pkg/48500: add a hack on NetBSD/alpha to add the gcc compiler flag -fno-tree-ter, removing the alignment warnings printed by the NetBSD/alpha kernel when perl was executed. bump PKGREVISION
Fix OpenBSD 5.3 build and supress warning under OpenBSD 5.4 * OpenBSD has no libdb like NetBSD
Changes 5.18.2: * B has been upgraded from version 1.42_01 to 1.42_02. * B::Concise has been upgraded from version 0.95 to 0.95_01. * English has been upgraded from version 1.06 to 1.06_01. This fixes an error about the performance of $`, $&, and c<$'>. * File::Glob has been upgraded from version 1.20 to 1.20_01. Bugs fixed: * Perl 5.18.1 introduced a regression along with a bugfix for lexical subs. Some B::SPECIAL results from B::CV::GV became undefs instead. This broke Devel::Cover among other libraries. * Perl 5.18.0 introduced a regression whereby [:^ascii:], if used in the same character class as other qualifiers, would fail to match characters in the Latin-1 block. * Perl 5.18.0 introduced a regression when using ->SUPER::method with AUTOLOAD by looking up AUTOLOAD from the current package, rather than the current package’s superclass. * Perl 5.18.0 introduced a regression whereby -bareword was no longer permitted under the strict and integer pragmata when used together. * Previously PerlIOBase_dup didn't check if pushing the new layer succeeded before (optionally) setting the utf8 flag. This could cause segfaults-by-nullpointer. * A buffer overflow with very long identifiers has been fixed. * A regression from 5.16 in the handling of padranges led to assertion failures if a keyword plugin declined to handle the second ‘my’, but only after creating a padop. * The construct $r=qr/.../; /$r/p is now handled properly, an issue which had been worsened by changes 5.18.0.
Fix/Update DEPENDS paterns for perl CORE modules, with some trivial fixes. Bump PKGREVISION for runtime dependency pattern changed packages.
Mark p5-* packages older than CORE module one as CONFLICTS. Base on 'corelist -v 5.18.1'.
Don't include -Wl,--whole-archive in the default LDFLAGS on NetBSD. It breaks the build in packages when the compiler doesn't implicitly disable it later. Bump revision.
Disable -fstack-protector on SunOS, it causes more trouble than its worth. Bump PKGREVISION.
Ensure -lssp is added to $lddlflags on SunOS when using -fstack-protector, fixing a number of packages with __stack_chk_* symbol failures. Bump PKGREVISION.
Changes 5.18.1:
* B has been upgraded from 1.42 to 1.42_01, fixing bugs related to lexical subroutines.
* Digest::SHA has been upgraded from 5.84 to 5.84_01, fixing a crashing bug.
* Module::CoreList has been upgraded from 2.89 to 2.96.
* Starting in v5.18.0, a construct like /[#](?{})/x would have its # incorrectly interpreted as a comment. The code block would be skipped, unparsed. This has been corrected.
* A number of memory leaks related to the new, experimental regexp bracketed character class feature have been plugged.
* The OP allocation code now returns correctly aligned memory in all cases for struct pmop. Previously it could return memory only aligned to a 4-byte boundary, which is not correct for an ithreads build with 64 bit IVs on some 32 bit platforms. Notably, this caused the build to fail completely on sparc GNU/Linux.
* The debugger's man command been fixed. It was broken in the v5.18.0 release. The man command is aliased to the names doc and perldoc - all now work again.
* @_ is now correctly visible in the debugger, fixing a regression introduced in v5.18.0's debugger.
* Fixed a small number of regexp constructions that could either fail to match or crash perl when the string being matched against was allocated above the 2GB line on 32-bit systems.
* Perl v5.16 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby calls to XSUBs that were not visible at compile time were treated as lvalues and could be assigned to, even when the subroutine was not an lvalue sub. This has been fixed.
* Perl v5.18 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby dual-vars (i.e. variables with both string and numeric values, such as $! ) where the truthness of the variable was determined by the numeric value rather than the string value.
* Perl v5.18 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby interpolating mixed up- and down-graded UTF-8 strings in a regex could result in malformed UTF-8 in the pattern: specifically if a downgraded character in the range \x80..\xff followed a UTF-8 string
* Lexical constants (my sub a() { 42 }) no longer crash when inlined.
* Parameter prototypes attached to lexical subroutines are now respected when compiling sub calls without parentheses. Previously, the prototypes were honoured only for calls with parentheses.
* Syntax errors in lexical subroutines in combination with calls to the same subroutines no longer cause crashes at compile time.
* The dtrace sub-entry probe now works with lexical subs, instead of crashing
* Undefining an inlinable lexical subroutine (my sub foo() { 42 } undef &foo) would result in a crash if warnings were turned on.
* Deep recursion warnings no longer crash lexical subroutines.
Fix build under GNU/kFreeBSD. * Add variable for GNU/kFreeBSD.
Fix netbsd hints: --whole-archive is a linker flag, not a compiler flag. Bump PKGREVISION. Hopefully improves p5-gettext with clang from pkgsrc.
Revert unintentional change to Makefile.
Fix build on FreeBSD/amd64 9.1-RELEASE. * FreeBSD 9.1's dtrace support has -h flag but "dtrace -h -s ../perldtrace.d" filed with following syntax error. "/usr/lib/dtrace/psinfo.d", line 37: syntax error near "uid_t" Adding dtrace support for perl5 on FreeBSD is hasty, I feel. dtrace support for FreeBSD perl5 is disabled.
Add patch from upstream git to try fixing test failures on 32bit NetBSD. From http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commitdiff/4149c7198d9b78d861df289cce40dd865cab57e7 Bump PKGREVISION.
No reason to mark as CONFLICTS with p5-Locale-Maketext-1.[0-9]*{,nb*},
core one is 1.22 whereas misc/p5-Locale-Maketext is 1.23.
Change the way we fix up $rm_try to avoid a tools directory reference. Fixes errors seen on SmartOS with PKG_DEVELOPER=yes when the fixed file was regenerated after the fixup, and appears to have the added benefit of removing the warnings about out of date builds during install.
We are excited to announce perl v5.18.0, the first stable release of version 18 of Perl 5. You can find a full list of changes in the file "perldelta.pod" located in the "pod" directory inside the release and on the web. Perl v5.18.0 represents approximately 12 months of development since Perl v5.16.0 and contains approximately 400,000 lines of changes across 2,100 files from 113 authors.
prevent to use C++ as default linker for Cygwin.
Changes 5.16.3: This release contains one major and a number of minor security fixes. It fixes a possible vulnerability to a denial-of-service attack by use of a carefully-crafted set of hash keys, a segmentation fault when reading or writing strings greater than 2^31 bytes in size, and a memory leak in Encode.xs's UTF-8 encoding implementation.

patch SA51498 from the git repo
Set ccflags and ldflags in Policy.sh instead of with CONFIGURE_ARGS.
Move XCOFF special handling to Policy.sh.
Remove the addition on ${LOCALBASE}/lib rpath to ldflags as this is already
done by the buildlink system.
Move options from Makefile to options.mk and remove a duplicate .include of mk/compiler.mk
Move a hack from the Makefile to hacks.mk
Tidy-up the perl5-post-install commands. (removing two missed references to PERL5_SCRIPTDIR and PERL5_MAN1DIR while at it)
Remove the uneeded PERL5_SCRIPTDIR and PERL5_MAN1DIR variables.
Remove the dynamic plist additions and add the two files to the static PLIST
REPLACE_PERL one more file and add a SUBST_MESSAGE. The rm class doesn't always work for me because miniperl regenerates some Makefiles and then overwrites the substed file. I haven't tracked the exact reason that triggers this down yet.
Changes 5.16.1: Enhancements were made to code features such as "use", which now explicitly enables feature bundles, a more consistent "eval" operator, and a revamped "substr" function. The "__SUB__" sequence now returns a reference to the current subroutine, allowing for recursive subroutines to be written more simply. Support for Unicode 6.1 was improved. Many other minor improvements and bugfixes, along with several deprecations, were made
Drop superfluous PKG_DESTDIR_SUPPORT, "user-destdir" is default these days.
Teach perllink(1) to transparently handle the case where a file has been compressed with "gzip". This stops it from creating a lot of broken symbolic links if "MANZ" is defined. Bump package revision because of this change.
Backport a fix for a serious bug from upstream, where pkgsrc's CFLAGS were being used to replace EU::CBuilder's ccflags, resulting in tests and modules failing in specific situations (e.g. on SunOS with ABI=32). https://rt.perl.org/rt3//Public/Bug/Display.html?id=89478 Bump PKGREVISION.
Force ExtUtils::MakeMaker to ignore installed packlist when creating new packlist. It prevents generating wrong PLIST during make replace. Bump PKGREVISION.
Always add PREFIX/lib to libpth. When building as normal user, it often exists already. This is not the case for bulk builds though. This fixes p5-MARC-Charset, since p5-gdbm ended up without rpath to PREFIX/lib. Fix some Perl interpreter paths while here. Bump revision.
PKGREVISION does not belong in Makefile.common.
If building with threads support, add PTHREAD_LDFLAGS to LDFLAGS. Fixes build on Ubuntu 11.04. Unlikely to have an effect on platforms that already built, so no PKGREVISION bump. Ok'd in freeze by wiz@
The CPAN module DB_File tries to link against -ldb, but NetBSD does not provide a separate library so compilation fails. Add a hints file to correct the list of libraries used on NetBSD.
Changes 5.14.1: * Several modules were updated to fix minor bugs. * Tests were fixed. * Documentation was improved. Changes 5.14.0: * Unicode version 6.0 is now supported. * Regular expressions can now be reset to the default modifiers. * Four new regular expression modifiers, "/d", "/l" , "/u", and "/a", were introduced. * The substitution operators now support the modifier "/r" to work non-destructively, leaving the original unmodified. * Larger octals can now be specified. * Array and hash operators can now experimentally operate directly on hard references. * printf-like functions now understand post-1980 size modifiers. * Exception handling was made more reliable and consistent. * Other enhancements and many bug fixes were made PkgSrc: * Fixed configuring on Mac OS X 10.7.

Updating lang/perl5 from 5.12.1nb2 to 5.12.2
Upstream changes:
Incompatible Changes
There are no changes intentionally incompatible with 5.12.1.
If any exist, they are bugs and reports are welcome.
Core Enhancements
Other than the bug fixes listed below, there should be no
user-visible changes to the core language in this release.
Modules and Pragmata
New Modules and Pragmata
This release does not introduce any new modules or pragmata.
Pragmata Changes
In the previous release, no VERSION; statements triggered a bug
which could cause feature bundles to be loaded and strict mode
to be enabled unintentionally.
Updated Modules
Carp
Upgraded from version 1.16 to 1.17.
Carp now detects incomplete caller() overrides and avoids using bogus
@DB::args. To provide backtraces, Carp relies on particular behaviour
of the caller built-in. Carp now detects if other code has overridden
this with an incomplete implementation, and modifies its backtrace
accordingly. Previously incomplete overrides would cause incorrect
values in backtraces (best case), or obscure fatal errors (worst case)
This fixes certain cases of Bizarre copy of ARRAY caused by modules
overriding caller() incorrectly.
CPANPLUS
A patch to cpanp-run-perl has been backported from CPANPLUS 0.9004.
This resolves [perl #55964] and [perl #57106], both of which related
to failures to install distributions that use Module::Install::DSL.
File::Glob
A regression which caused a failure to find CORE::GLOBAL::glob after
loading File::Glob to crash has been fixed. Now, it correctly falls
back to external globbing via pp_glob.
File::Copy
File::Copy::copy(FILE, DIR) is now documented.
File::Spec
Upgraded from version 3.31 to 3.31_01.
Several portability fixes were made in File::Spec::VMS: a colon is now
recognized as a delimiter in native filespecs; caret-escaped
delimiters are recognized for better handling of extended filespecs;
catpath() returns an empty directory rather than the current
directory if the input directory name is empty; abs2rel() properly
handles Unix-style input.
Utility Changes
* perlbug now always gives the reporter a chance to change the email
address it guesses for them.
* perlbug should no longer warn about uninitialized values when using
the -d and -v options.
Changes to Existing Documentation
* The existing policy on backward-compatibility and deprecation has
been added to perlpolicy, along with definitions of terms like
deprecation.
* "srand" in perlfunc's usage has been clarified.
* The entry for "die" in perlfunc was reorganized to emphasize its role
in the exception mechanism.
* Perl's INSTALL file has been clarified to explicitly state that Perl
requires a C89 compliant ANSI C Compiler.
* IO::Socket's getsockopt() and setsockopt() have been documented.
* alarm()'s inability to interrupt blocking IO on Windows has been
documented.
* Math::TrulyRandom hasn't been updated since 1996 and has been removed
as a recommended solution for random number generation.
* perlrun has been updated to clarify the behaviour of octal flags to
perl.
* To ease user confusion, $# and $*, two special variables that were
removed in earlier versions of Perl have been documented.
* The version of perlfaq shipped with the Perl core has been updated
from the official FAQ version, which is now maintained in the
briandfoy/perlfaq branch of the Perl repository at
git://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git.
Installation and Configuration Improvements
Configuration improvements
* The d_u32align configuration probe on ARM has been fixed.
Compilation improvements
* An "incompatible operand types" error in ternary expressions when
building with clang has been fixed.
* Perl now skips setuid File::Copy tests on partitions it detects to
be mounted as nosuid.
Selected Bug Fixes
* A possible segfault in the T_PRTOBJ default typemap has been fixed.
* A possible memory leak when using caller() to set @DB::args has been
fixed.
* Several memory leaks when loading XS modules were fixed.
* unpack() now handles scalar context correctly for %32H and %32u,
fixing a potential crash. split() would crash because the third item
on the stack wasn't the regular expression it expected.
unpack("%2H", ...) would return both the unpacked result and the
checksum on the stack, as would unpack("%2u", ...). [perl #73814]
* Perl now avoids using memory after calling free() in pp_require when
there are CODEREFs in @INC.
* A bug that could cause "Unknown error" messages when
"call_sv(code, G_EVAL)" is called from an XS destructor has been fixed.
* The implementation of the open $fh, '>' \$buffer feature now supports
get/set magic and thus tied buffers correctly.
* The pp_getc, pp_tell, and pp_eof opcodes now make room on the stack
for their return values in cases where no argument was passed in.
* When matching unicode strings under some conditions inappropriate
backtracking would result in a Malformed UTF-8 character (fatal)
error. This should no longer occur. See [perl #75680]
Platform Specific Notes
AIX
* README.aix has been updated with information about the XL C/C++ V11
compiler suite.
Windows
* When building Perl with the mingw64 x64 cross-compiler incpath,
libpth, ldflags, lddlflags and ldflags_nolargefiles values in
Config.pm and Config_heavy.pl were not previously not being set
correctly because, with that compiler, the include and lib
directories are not immediately below $(CCHOME).
VMS
* git_version.h is now installed on VMS. This was an oversight in
v5.12.0 which caused some extensions to fail to build.
* Several memory leaks in stat() have been fixed.
* A memory leak in Perl_rename() due to a double allocation has been
fixed.
* A memory leak in vms_fid_to_name() (used by realpath() and
realname()) has been fixed.
adding some CONFLICTS (modules which are newer in core)
Bump package revision again after unnecessary "gawk" dependence was removed.
Updating lang/perl5 from 5.12.1 to 5.12.1nb1 pkgsrc changes: - preparing for databases/p5-gdbm (using Makefile.common) - supporting external access to perl install dirs (dirs.mk) - fixing some errors/warnings from pkglint - adding conflict to packages of CPAN modules which are in Perl5 code on the one hand and are broken with perl-5.10+ Bumping PKGREVISION (dependencies changed, rebuild highly recommended). Recursive rebuild is not required.
Improve Haiku Support * Make perl executable * Add rpath for linkage, to allow using libraries outside of default LIB_PATH. * Allow PREFIX != /boot/common (patch-cp)
Update perl from version 5.10.1nb2 to version 5.12.1. Pkgsrc changes: - Adjust some patches - Remove patches integrated upstream - Use Perl's "Policy.sh" framework (along the way remove some patches) - Link in an enterprise friendly way on HPUX - in buildlink3.mk bump minimum required pkgsrc Perl version to 5.12.0 - placate some pkglint warnings Upstream changes: - From version 5.12.1 announce This release contains minor bug fixes and updates of several core modules, as well as minor documentation updates. It should be fully backward compatible with Perl 5.12.0. - From version 5.12.0 announce: Perl 5.12.0 represents approximately two years of development since version 5.10.0 and contains over 750,000 lines of changes across over 3,000 files from over 200 authors and committers. [...] Notable changes in Perl 5.12 include: * Perl now conforms much more closely to the Unicode standard. Additionally, this release includes an upgrade to version 5.2 of the standard. * New experimental APIs allow developers to extend Perl with "pluggable" keywords and syntax. * Perl now has a better sense of time and will be able to keep accurate time well past the "Y2038" barrier. * New syntax allows developers to specify package version numbers directly in "package" statements * Perl now warns the user about the use of deprecated features by default. - For a complete list of changes see included perl5120delta(1) and perl5121delta(1) or http://perldoc.perl.org/perl5120delta.html and http://perldoc.perl.org/perl5121delta.html

Pkgsrc changes: - Adjust some patches - Remove patches integrated upstream Upstream changes: "5.10.1 is a maintenance release for perl 5.10, incorporating various minor bugfixes and optimisations." Nonetheless some incompatibles changes are noteworthy and are related to: - flip-flop and defined-or operators behavior in switch statement - type-based dispatch and overloading of the smart match operator - 'use feature :5.10*' semantics - Perl development switched to git - internal structure of the ext/ perl source directory changed - removal of the modules Test::Harness::Straps, ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes and ExtUtils::MakeMaker::vmsish - the Module::CoreList module no longer contains the %:patchlevel hash - a bugfix related to the handling of the /m modifier and qr resulted in a change of behaviour between 5.8.x and 5.10.0 (this was missing from perl 5.10.0 perldelta).

Drop MAKE_JOBS_SAFE=no. Was updated a while back; MAKE_JOBS=16 works.

Adding patch from perl-5.10.1 upstream to fix "Unkown error bug" described in http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=49472 Bumping PKGREVISION
Add missing \ in multiline variable assignments. Only affects AIX.
merge upstream commit b376053de54af4268a31e5a60d1f9e57db30af11:
[perl #49003] pp_ftrread appears to use the wrong access mode for -x when
using "use filetest 'access';"
Bump PKGREVISION. Noted by Leo R. Lundgren.
Fix subst pattern to create parsable entry for XLC's cpp.
Further refine AIX support.
Improve AIX support to the point that dynamic modules work. Bump revision. In collaboration with Jens Rehsack.
Add fixes for CVE-2008-2827 and CVE-2008-5302 from CPAN respectively Debian. While there also fix two check interpreter warnings.
Add rpath entries for XCOFF/AIX as well. Tested by Jens Rehsack.
Fixed a memory leak in the qr operator. PKGREVISION++
Remove some extraneous quoting which makes this package not build on Linux under certain circumstances. Does not change the contents of the package for other platforms, so no revision bump.
Adjust PERL5_REQD from 5.8.7 to 5.10.0, so as to prevent attempts at using p5-* packages built with the new perl from being installed together with an older version of perl. The p5-* packages will not work because the new and old perls install modules in different directories. As a consequence, bump package revision.
WRKDIR's basename can be anything hence be a bit more generic while removing workdir reference in "lib/Config_heavy.pl"
Update perl5 from version 5.8.8nb8 to 5.10.0.
A large number of packages have had their internal regression tests
run successfully with this update, including mod_perl for Apache.

Don't pass ABI flags on IRIX, compiler.mk already handles this through _WRAP_EXTRA_ARGS.
A nasty side effect of using TOOLS_SED here is that perl will try to
outsmart us and call the tool by name in some parts of the build.
eg just "nbsed" instead of "/usr/pkg/bin/nbsed". This can only have
worked before as long as ${PREFIX}/bin was in the user's path.
Fix this by TOOLS_ALIASES.sed+=${TOOLS_SED:T} so that an "nbsed"
is available in the PATH.
bump PKGREVISION for previous change to patch-ah.
Set LIBSWANTED for Linux as suggested by jlam in PR 31088.
Bump PKGREVISION because of the mk/tools/perl.mk changes. There was a window during which perllink didn't work properly on Darwin.
For the moment disable the building of a shared libperl.dylib on Darwin => 9.0 as it breaks the build. This should just be considered a temporary work around until the actual problem can be fixed as this worked for Darwin < 9.0. There are no changes to perl on any other platforms. This should address PR# 37225
Added commented-out LICENSE=something.

Specially crafted input to a regular expression can cause Perl to improperly allocate memory, possibly resulting in arbitrary code running with the permissions of the user running Perl.
Don't assume any pre-installed perl5. This is necessary for pbulk builds when Perl is installed in the "outer" pkgsrc. Otherwise, references to the pbulk directory are stored in the binary package.
Commit the patch from PR pkg/35319 which should fix perl compilation on newer versions (11) of solaris. Verified that the 'bmake test' output is unchanged on 32-bit solaris-2.9/sparc.
This package is not MAKE_JOBS_SAFE.
ABI is usually undefined, so a defined() check is needed.
Further improve packlist logic to handle DESTDIR for Perl modules as well. Perl itself is special as the DESTDIR does *not* end up in the packlist, but for normal modules it does.
DESTDIR support. Slightly refactor Perl build to avoid calling the newly build executable, either by using the same constants or by sourcing the config.sh script created by Configure. Don't create $installsitearch and don't attempt to remove $installvendorarch, the former is easy and the latter not needed.
Added a debugging option to the package (disabled by default).
Consistently use $perlprog to refer to the perl executable in the perllink script. This was causing errors when building perl from pkgsrc. The perllink script didn't create any symlinks because it tried to invoke "perl", which silently fails with revision 1.20 of mk/tools/perl.mk (after the pkgsrc-2006Q2 branch). Bump the PKGREVISION to 3.
GCC versions prior to 3.4 have a bug handling the "unused" attribute in declarations when compiling C++ code. Patch the perl.h and XSUB.h headers to avoid using this attribute if using GCC<3.4 and building C++ modules. This fixes PR pkg/33403 by OBATA Akio. Bump PKGREVISION to 2.
Put any compiled binaries into vendor- and site-specific locations to avoid conflicts with each other. We let the perllink script handle all the appropriate symlinking. Bump PKGREVISION to 1.
Ensure that perl uses /bin/sh (or the appropriate functional equivalent) for executing shell commands. Fix from PR pkg/32812 by Anne Bennett.
Update lang/perl5 to 5.8.8. Changes from version 5.8.7 include:
* Updates of many standard Perl modules.
* Performance enhancements for loadable modules and memory usage.
* Fixed bug when running with "-w". Previously when running with
warnings enabled globally via "-w", selective disabling of specific
warning categories would actually turn off all warnings. This
is now fixed; now "no warnings 'io';" will only turn off warnings
in the "io" class. This bug fix may cause some programs to start
correctly issuing warnings.
* Perl 5.8.4 introduced a change so that assignments of "undef" to a
scalar, or of an empty list to an array or a hash, were optimised away.
As this could cause problems when "goto" jumps were involved, this
change has been backed out.
* Using the sprintf function with some formats could lead to a
buffer overflow in some specific cases. This has been fixed,
along with several other bugs, notably in bounds checking.
* Fixed bug in pkgsrc-installed perl-5.8.7 and all subsequent
PKGREVISIONs, where perl didn't look for site modules under
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/site_perl, but only under
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0, and similarly for the vendor
modules.
* Honor PKGMANDIR when installing man pages.
Use SUBST framework instead of FILES_SUBST_SED.

Tell the Configure script the correct LDFLAGS needed to link threaded applications much sooner. We do this by making every hints file create a usethreads.cbu script that prepends the correct LDFLAGS to the ldflags and lddlflags Perl variables. This should fix PR pkg/31091, which detailed a problem with building threaded perl on a platform withat native pthreads that used GNU Pth as its pthread library. While we're here, also fix some minor variable quoting issues. Bump the PKGREVISION to 6.
Fix for Perl format string vulnerability noted in CVE-2005-3962:
perl suffers from an integer wrap overflow inside the explicit
parameter format string functionality. This has been confirmed to
be a vector for remote code execution.
Bump PKGREVISION to 5.
Change my MAINTAINER email address to the one I've been using for pkgsrc work.
Ran "pkglint --autofix", which corrected some of the quoting issues in CONFIGURE_ARGS.
Split out the packlist-handling code from modules.mk into a separate packlist.mk file, and replace the custom code in perl5/Makefile that duplicated the same packlist handling to just use the routines in packlist.mk.
Bump revision since the linking changed on DragonFly. Suggested by jlam@.
Remove some more *LEGACY* settings that are over a month old and thus were before 2005Q3.
Set LIBSWANTED and SYSLIBPATH for DragonFly. Tests that failed are: ../ext/POSIX/t/posix.t not ok 3 - read to array element # TODO read to array element not working # Failed at /home/reed/pkgsrc/lang/perl5/work/perl-5.8.7/ext/POSIX/t/posix.t lin e 40 # got undef # expected 'perl # ' not ok 11 - masked SIGINT received
Remove the empty $sitearch directory even if it's outside of ${PREFIX} --
the perl installation will always create it and it's surprising when
it suddenly appears on your filesystem.
Restore perllocal.pod-generating behavior of ExtUtils::MakeMaker because some Perl modules make some (bad) assumptions about the structure of a MakeMaker-generated Makefile. Instead, remove the perllocal.pod file whenever a p5-* module or perl itself is removed. While here, rename some of the install/deinstall templates to more descriptive names. Bump the PKGREVISION to 3.
Alter the configuration so that: $(prefix) == $(siteprefix) == $(vendorprefix) so that if a perl module is configured with "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=...", then that single PREFIX definition will override all three of the above, and files will be properly installed into the correct relative path. Also, patch a test so that it understands the different behavior of the pkgsrc ExtUtils::MakeMaker module. Bump the PKGREVISION to 2.
Fix an error in ExtUtils::MakeMaker that didn't output the definitions for INSTALLSITESCRIPT and INSTALLVENDORSCRIPT in MakeMaker-generated Makefiles. Bump the PKGREVISION to 1.
Update lang/perl5 to 5.8.7. Changes from version 5.8.6 include updates
for many "core" modules, UTF-8 and Unicode bugfixes, and ithreads
bugfixes.
The major changes are in the pkgsrc infrastructure to handle Perl and
Perl modules. All pkgsrc-installed Perl modules are now installed in
"vendor" directories, and the perl interpreter has been modifed to
search for libraries in the following order: site, vendor, perl. The
Perl library is stored in a directory that is named for the Perl ABI
version associated with the Perl release, so any updates of Perl to
newer versions can be done "in-place" as long as Perl ABI version
remains the same. All Perl scripts and man pages are stored in
locations that won't conflict between site, vendor, and perl modules,
and a new utility perllink(1) now manages symlinks to those scripts
and man pages under the usual ${LOCALBASE}/bin and ${LOCALBASE}/man/man1.
PERL5_SITEPREFIX may be set to the prefix where local, site-specific
modules will be installed, e.g. PERL5_SITEPREFIX=/usr/local. Note
that modules installed here are completely unmanaged by pkgsrc.
Update the buildlink and tool dependencies on perl to require perl>=5.8.7
to reflect the new locations for Perl modules and the Perl shared
library.
sort out 32- and 64bit flags for IRIX
Use "test -h", instead of "test", to test symlinks. This should have been committed with the previous change. Noted by jlam@. Bump PKGREVISION.
Make sure that the path to "test" in ${TOOLS_DIR} is not embedded in
Config.pm. Bump PKGREVISION.
Drop the perl-5.6.x package from pkgsrc. Remove lang/perl58 and update lang/perl5 to perl-5.8.6nb4. Modify packages that referred to lang/perl58 to point to lang/perl5 instead.
Remove USE_BUILDLINK3 and NO_BUILDLINK; these are no longer used.
Perl's Configure needs to be restricted from finding libraries that
we don't want it to find. The usual buildlink techniques don't work
here since the Configure script uses a file existence test instead of
a linker test to see if the library exists. For each operating system
that we support in pkgsrc, there should be corresponding
LIBSWANTED.${OPSYS} and SYSLIBPATH.${OPSYS} definitions in the Perl
package Makefiles to ensure we only get what we ask for.
In this particular case, add the appropriate definitions for OpenBSD
so that we don't pick up random libraries that may also be installed
on the system.
Forcibly set the locations for the version-specific directories. Before, we were possibly using the values gleaned from a pre-existing perl binary via perl5/vars.mk (pulled in by bsd.pkg.use.mk), which would lead to the new perl using the pre-existing perl's version-specific libraries. Bump the PKGREVISION of lang/perl5 to 11 and lang/perl58 to 4.
Drop maintainership of perl-5.6.x. We should move pkgsrc to using perl58 for everything, and remove this package altogether.
Remove duplicate "the" in comment.
Change ALL_TARGET to BUILD_TARGET.
Remove MIPSpro bits that added -n32 or -64 depending on the ABI; this handling has been moved into mk/compiler/mipspro.mk.
Replace RPATH_FLAG with LINKER_RPATH_FLAG and COMPILER_RPATH_FLAG,
which are the full option names used to set rpath directives for the
linker and the compiler, respectively. In places were we are invoking
the linker, use "${LINKER_RPATH_FLAG} <path>", where the space is
inserted in case the flag is a word, e.g. -rpath. The default values
of *_RPATH_FLAG are set by the compiler/*.mk files, depending on the
compiler that you use. They may be overridden on a ${OPSYS}-specific
basis by setting _OPSYS_LINKER_RPATH_FLAG and _OPSYS_COMPILER_RPATH_FLAG,
respectively. Garbage-collect _OPSYS_RPATH_NAME and _COMPILER_LD_FLAG.
Do not unset USE_GCC3, just complain if building with GCC on AIX. Okayed by grant.
Rework how proper ABI flags are set on IRIX, using patch provided by Georg Schwarz in PR pkg/25057: - check for PKGSRC_COMPILER instead of USE_MIPSPRO: USE_MIPSPRO would imply the former, but not the other way around. That is, it's conceivable to have a system that has PKGSRC_COMPILER set (to mipspro), but not USE_MIPSPRO. - Allow passing of -Duse64bitint if ABI == 64 even if the compiler is not mipspro. (Note: we could test this on a non-IRIX 64bit platform by setting ABI to '64'. I think that should work, too, but I can't test that right now.)
Add Interix to NOT_FOR_PLATFORM; porting will be done on only perl 5.8.
Address PR pkg/25147: only set mipspro specific compiler flags when using mipspro. Otherwise, defaults will do.
Test if a conditional variable is defined before expanding it. From Ralf-P. Weinmann on tech-pkg@.
Bump the PKGREVISION of lang/perl5. Changes between versions 5.6.1nb9 and 5.6.1nb10 include pulling in changes from the latest Perl sources that add a more complete set of directories on NetBSD systems to the rpath of Perl modules so that they may find libperl.so. The module build/installation is now robust against the user overriding the value of INSTALLARCHLIB.
Adding a MESSAGE file noting where these packages search for plugins or modules that may be added by other packages.
Fix PLIST issues for perl5 in the overwrite case after removing packlist -> PLIST generator from bsd.pkg.mk to perl5/module.mk.
Make sure perl5 build doesn't wait for manual input at the site-specific manual pages step in Configure. (Okay'd by jlam@.) This closes my PR #23009.
Missing space before ]
Make this look more like lang/perl58/Makefile, and bl3ify.
For BSD/OS, define LIBSWANTED.BSDOS and SYSLIBPATH.BSDOS. (I hadn't needed before, since didn't have other libraries installed that it tried to detect.)
On AIX, perl doesn't like building with gcc. Force it to use /usr/bin/cc instead.
Use LIBSWANTED.IRIX and remove inclusion of libiconv buildlink as it's no longer needed. Suggested by jlam@.
Only include libiconv/buildlink2.mk on IRIX. It's not needed on NetBSD.
Unlike perl58, this versions appears to require some libiconv functionality, so add the appropriate buildlink. Doesn't affect NetBSD, but makes this work under Irix. Apparently this is a change I forgot to commit a long time ago.
Explicitly choose the library directory structure. Also create
${PREFIX}/share/mk before installing into it.
s/netbsd.org/NetBSD.org/
Make this work on Irix with both n32 and 64 ABI.
Bump PKGREVISIONs of lang/perl5 and lang/perl58: modify the build so that libgcc.a isn't linked "whole archive" into the perl executable on newer NetBSD systems (>1.5.x). Newer NetBSD systems have libgcc_pic.a linked into shared libraries, so this hack isn't needed. This change was tested by building and testing textproc/xerces-p, a C++ perl5 module that uses functions in libgcc.a.
Modify lang/perl5 and lang/perl58 to install man3 pages again. However,
we install them into a private directory under the the normal Perl
installation and configure Perl so that site-specific Perl man3 pages
are installed into a private directory within site_perl. This avoids
manpage conflicts between 3rd-party modules, the standard Perl library,
and other packages.
The changes implement some unfinished work that is alluded to in the
MakeMaker.pm module by allowing "installsiteman{1,3}dir" to be set
during the configuration process and are used to provide default values
for INSTALLSITEMAN{1,3}DIR during the Perl module build/install process.
Bump PKGREVISIONs for lang/perl5 and lang/perl58.
(1) Publicly export the value of _OPSYS_RPATH_NAME as RPATH_FLAG;
Makefiles simply need to use this value often, for better or for
worse.
(2) Create a new variable FIX_RPATH that lists variables that should
be cleansed of -R or -rpath values if ${_USE_RPATH} is "no". By
default, FIX_RPATH contains LIBS, X11_LDFLAGS, and LDFLAGS, and
additional variables may be appended from package Makefiles.
fix some indenting and strip unneeded parens.
adopt some patches from FreeBSD ports, allowing this to build on FreeBSD 5.0 (and probably Solaris w/ gcc3). also, make really sure we don't try to use perl's malloc().

Merge changes in packages from the buildlink2 branch that have buildlink2.mk files back into the main trunk. This provides sufficient buildlink2 infrastructure to start merging other packages from the buildlink2 branch that have already been converted to use the buildlink2 framework.
Rename USE_BUILDLINK2_ONLY to USE_BUILDLINK2 for less verbosity. Also convert a few more packages to use the buildlink2 framework.
First pass at conversion of various packages to use the buildlink2 framework. Add many buildlink2.mk files to add to the framework. Please see buildlink2.txt for more details.
Move post-patch target that modified files to pre-configure, so that the result of "make patch" can be used for "mkpatches".
Update lang/perl5 to 5.6.1nb7. Changes from version 5.6.1nb6 include
changing the default module/library search path to have site_perl come
before the standard directories. In other words, the previous search path
on an i386 was:
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386-netbsd
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-netbsd
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/site_perl
but it is now:
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-netbsd
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/site_perl
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386-netbsd
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1
The rationale for this is that when we install a module that is newer than
one in the standard library, the new module goes into the site_perl
directory as it's an add-on module. However, we can't use the newer module
without modifying either the scripts of the perl environment to find the
newer module explicitly because of the order of the library search path:
the site_perl directories come after the standard directories. The normal
solution is to directly replace the module in the standard library with
the newer module. However, this isn't really on option when installing
via pkgsrc because the older module files are owned by the perl package.
By placing the the site_perl directories before the standard directories,
newer modules that we install via pkgsrc are simply found before the older
ones in the standard library.
Typo.
Use 'rm -f' instead of 'rm' in case the files don't already exist.
Install perl5.6.1 as statically linked if perl is statically linked. Also provide a way to avoid building a statically linked perl on platforms where it doesn't matter. Currently, by empirical evidence in pkg/14871, this includes mipsel and probably mipseb. Other platforms can add themselves if/when they discover it doesn't matter for them either. Closes pkg/14871 by John Hawkinson <jhawk@mit.edu>.
Use PKGREVISION to manage package-specific versions numbers that differ from the distfile version number. G/C the version number stuff from perl5/Makefile.common, preserving only PERL5_DIST_VERS as it's still used by libperl.
Add 'dl' to the LIBSWANTED.SunOS line. Now the perl configure script finds a dlopen on SunOS and builds a shared libperl, which makes it possible to build mod_perl.
Add a patch to the perl package that causes perl modules from CPAN to link
directly against -lperl when built. Combined with the previous update of
perl to add ${LOCALBASE}/lib to the rpath when creating shared
libraries/modules, these two changes make using mod_perl.so (ap-perl) more
painless. All perl shared modules now contain interlibrary dependencies to
the shared libraries they need. Instead of needing (at least on ELF):
LoadFile !/usr/lib/libm.so
LoadFile lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386-netbsd/CORE/libperl.so
...
# Any other libraries needed by perl shared modules need to listed
# with LoadFile here.
...
LoadModule perl_module lib/httpd/mod_perl.so
AddModule mod_perl.c
you'd need only the last two lines as the mod_perl authors intended.
I've tested this patch for many weeks now, successfully loading and using
the p5-Apache-ASP module as my test bed, and I haven't noticed any problems
with normal perl usage.
Also comment the Makefile slightly better.
The previous change (making ExtUtils recognize -Wl,-R as the prefix for a linker rpath flag) deserves a bump in the package version number. Go to perl-5.6.1nb5.
Update perl to 5.6.1nb4. Changes from version 5.6.1nb3 include: * Ensure that shared objects/libraries created by perl Makefiles include the correct run-time library search path by also including the local libraries directories. For example, shared objects are linked on ELF platforms with "cc -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib -L/usr/pkg/lib", and not just "cc -L/usr/pkg/lib" as before.
The perl Configure script has a check for several directories, including
/usr/local/scripts and forces the scripts to be installed there if it
exists. We override this by explicitly setting "scriptdir" to
"${PREFIX}/bin". This should fix the problem noted in pkg/14050 by
Brian Stark <bpstark@pacbell.net>.
Note that if LIBSWANTED.${OPSYS} isn't defined, then the perl defaults for
that OS is used.
Solve SunOS build problem in a much cleaner way by predefining "libswanted" for Perl's configuration script as suggested by Johnny C. Lam in private e-mail.
Update perl to 5.6.1nb3. User-visible changes from the previous version
include:
- Re-adding ${LOCALBASE}/include and ${LOCALBASE}/lib to the local compiler
search paths,
Other changes include:
- Migrating the setting to not install man3 pages from patch-ab into the
package Makefile so that they aren't installed across all pkgsrc platforms.
- Better document SYSLIBPATH.${OPSYS}.
Note conflict with perl-base-*, pointed out by David Brownlee <abs@formula1.com>.
Update perl to 5.6.1nb2. Changes from perl-5.6.1nb1 include undoing the
perl mess I created a year ago and making this a vanilla perl installation
again, and explicitly setting the system library path so that /usr/local/*
doesn't appear anywhere.
The installed perl library now also includes CGI.pm-2.752. The www/p5-CGI
package installs in to ${PERL5_SITEARCH} so there is no conflict with the
"standard" CGI.pm.
Perl5 needs a "nb1" version bump to make sure everything which depends on it is updated not to have the perl-mk dependency. This braindead nature of pkgsrc to register all dependencies recursively into binary pkgs *will* be fixed.
* Make perl stop installing anything in the man3 directory. It's starting
to install things like "open.3" and "lib.3" which confuse users. Perl
ships with a documentation tool, "perldoc", for this purpose; create a
MESSAGE indicating that it should be used instead. (Perl still installs
command line program manual pages in man1.)
* Integrate bsd.perl.mk into the perl5-base build where it should have been
from the beginning. The separate perl-mk pkg makes binary packages of
perl-mk completely useless[*]. Older perl builders will not break, since
<bsd.pkg.mk> contains fallback definitions that are evaluated at pkg
build time.
=====
[*] bsd.perl.mk is tightly bound to the version of perl that is installed.
The version name "perl-mk-1.1" is completely useless as a binary pkg,
since keeping multiple binary versions of perl on a FTP server means
that one of the perl-mk's will get clobbered.
However, putting the current pkgsrc PERL5_DIST_VERS in the perl-mk pkg
is also a problem, because that doesn't necessarily reflect the
installed version of perl. Snarfing the installed version at perl-mk
build time would be even uglier, since you could not then walk the tree
without perl being installed.
The cleanest solution is to integrate bsd.perl.mk into the perl5-base
pkg, and let those who have not upgraded perl yet use the runtime
definitions in <bsd.pkg.mk>.
Update perl to 5.6.1. Changes from perl-5.6.0 include many bug fixes, the plugging of several memory leaks, fixes to the regular expression engine, the addition of a Unicode character classes, better support for 64-bit platorms, and updates of many modules in the base Perl Library. See perldelta.pod for more details. Also update p5-Data-Dumper, p5-Devel-DProf, and p5-Devel-Peek to the latest versions distributed with the perl-5.6.1 sources, and libperl to 5.6.1 to match the perl package.
Update perl to 5.6.0nb6 as a result of requiring the new version of perl-base (5.6.0nb2).
Update dependency on perl-mk to 1.1.
Modified the link process of the perl executable so that all libgcc.a is included in the perl executable. We need this to make the upcoming xerces-perl package working. This hack should be made obsolete by gcc-3.0, which will have a libgcc.so. See http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-pkg/2001/04/07/0000.html for more details
Bump to 5.6.0nb4: Depend on perl-mk.
Move the COMMENT from being in its own file to a definition in the package Makefile.
Update perl5 to 5.6.0nb3. This is now a meta-pkg which pulls in perl-base, as well as other modules from a standard installation of perl-5.6.0.
Use PERL5_PACKLIST. Goodbye unsightly PLIST-* !!

Adapt to new handling of "${CONFIGURE}".
Downgrade "perl" package to working version 5.00404.
Change PLIST handling to differentiate between ELF and a.out, as well as shared and static (NOPIC). Works with ELF on -current now. NOPIC and SunOS support may be broken; someone else with the necessary resources should test and possibly fix these cases.
Upgrade perl to 5.005_03
Use the shared PLIST on Solaris and remove Socket from the egrep -v.
Modifications for better Solaris support, to search for a fuller list of libraries during configuration, and enabling dynamic support.
Fix the PLIST in the solaris case
s/netbsd/${LOWER_OPSYS}/
Pass "${CFLAGS}" to configure script as suggested by Adam Ciarcinski.
s/make/${MAKE}/g
Re-enable 5.003 bin-compat. Though it's not *supposed* to do so, compiling modules with this turned on makes the resulting modules or libperl-linking programs reference 5.003 namespace symbols.
Do not use Perl's malloc (will interfere with modules that interact with code that is outside of Perl's reach). The BSD malloc is Fine.
Do not enable binary compatibility with Perl 5.003. We have never had a Perl 5.003 pkg, so the compatibility is moot; turning it on exposes namespace polluting symbols.
Revert to building libperl statically, and clean up.
Add proper shared object support for ELF(!), and make libperl shared on non-NOPIC systems.
Use PLIST-md.shared on alpha and place an exception into perl's Makefile, not into the generic bsd.pkg.mk.
The Grand Homepagification: - New, optional Makefile variable HOMEPAGE, specifies a URL for the home page of the software if it has one. - The value of HOMEPAGE is used to add a link from the README.html files. - pkglint updated to know about it. The "correct" location for HOMEPAGE in the Makefile is after MAINTAINER, in that same section.
Configure uses ${PREFIX} so pass it in the environment.
(Or was it our patch only that introduced it -- then it
might need to be ${prefix} in patches/patch-aa instead).
In any case, this fix works (now gdbm is found if it is
already installed as a package).
Update package Makefiles for automatic manual page handling.
Substitute all obvious FreeBSD ppl as MAINTAINER with packages@netbsd.org.
Use the bsd.pkg.mk and bsd.pkg.subdir.mk files in the pkgsrc tree. Remove redundant (and sometimes erroneous) comments.
Strip a2p.
Use MACHINE_ARCH for archname; Reported by Johnny C. Lam <lamj@stat.cmu.edu> in PR 4990.
portlint: fix RCS Id+MAN3, delete empty line
Fix setting CONFIGURE_ARGS ("=" -> "+=")
Update for perl 5.004_04 and MI/MD PLIST.
