- B/C.pm: fixed `Can't locate object method "IVX" ...' (RH#199736)
- libperl.map: added new PL_perlio_* bss vars under PERL_5.8.9;
this can break libperl.so.5.8 forward binary compatibility for

compiled with this perl release will also work with earlier
perl releases) by adjusting newXSproto() and sv_usepvn() macros - Perl_ninstr() changed in incompatible way, which broke Compress::Zlib
and Filter; newer releases of these packages, which use memchr(3)
instead, already available in Sisyphus; placed Conflicts in perl-base - DynaLoader.a officially moved to libperl.so, but I still provide
empty DynaLoader.a to facilitate building e.g. irssi package - perl-base: removed Text::Soundex, to be packaged separately

syntax, was reverted with change 30181 (the syntax is still deprecated)

folding and better error messages for generated code (merged into 5.9) - added /usr/include/perl5 symbolic link
- started git repo, which, along with my changes, has prisitine perl
source for 5.8 and 5.9 branches, including every single change from
public.activestate.com archive - this release is based on perl-5.8.8 MAINT28854; also backported a few

- restricted the list of symbols exported from the shared library
- reworked xsubpp static_XS stuff; auto-generated XS functions are now
static by default (except for boot_$module); this behaviour can be
disabled by setting XSUBPP_NO_STATIC_XS environment variable - ParseXS.pm: public visibility mode for boot_$module XS functions
