8 perl5250delta - what is new for perl v5.25.0
12 This document describes differences between the 5.24.0 release and the 5.25.0
21 Some modules have been broken by the L<context stack rework|/Internal Changes>.
22 These modules were relying on non-guaranteed implementation details in perl.
23 Their maintainers have been informed, and should contact perl5-porters for
24 advice if needed. Below is a subset of these modules:
28 =item L<Algorithm::Permute>
32 L<Coro> and perl v5.22.0 were already incompatible due to a change in the perl,
33 and the reworking on the perl context stack creates a further incompatibility.
34 perl5-porters has L<discussed the issue on the mailing
35 list|http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2016/05/msg236174.html>.
49 The module L<lexical::underscore> no longer works on perl v5.24.0, because perl
50 no longer has a lexical C<$_>!
54 C<mod_perl> has been patched for compatibility for v5.22.0 and later but no
55 release has been made. The relevant patch (and other changes) can be found in
56 their source code repository, L<mirrored at
57 GitHub|https://github.com/apache/mod_perl/commit/82827132efd3c2e25cc413c85af61bb63375da6e>.
