58 We should be telling people about ..exp, else they use the unexpanded
59 forms and shaft anyone who installs a private perl within ~
62 INSTALL didn't mention the 5.8.2 hash changes. Fixed
68 Punt the "reporting bugs" section to the top.
69 Reorder the description of what to do, to start with the most common
71 Clarify "how to report bugs effectively" (and why it benefits you)
73 plus some edits to undo Gisle's "modernisation" of 5.8.0 to 5.9.0

570 Move the PERLVAR(Ireentrant_buffer, REENTR*) outside the ITHREADS
571 block. This allows the re-entrant API to be used with ithreads,
572 which in turn permits -Dusethreads -Uuseithreads -Uuse5005threads

1340 hv_clear_placeholders now manipulates the linked lists directly, rather
1341 than using the iterator interface and calling hv_delete
1342 This will allow hv_delete to be simplified to remove most of the
1343 special casing related to placeholders.
1346 Now hv_delete is able to ingore placeholders.
1347 (This is an XS visible change in the hash API. But not of documented
1351 deleting keys in restricted hashes was leaking the entry. Yow!
1354 Comment to record why we can't clear placeholders in hsplit
1357 My re-implementation of hv_clear_placeholders was buggy - not sure why
1358 the tests still passed. Fixed.
1361 In hsplit, if a normal hash has placeholders then clear them before
1362 splitting. We can do this safely because Storable ensures hsplit is
1363 not called while it builds restricted hashes (actually any hashes)
1364 This change may not make things faster, but now we have the choice.

1454 make minitest passes a -minitest flag to t/TEST
1455 t/TEST sees this and sets $ENV{PERL_CORE_MINITEST}
1456 Tests can choose to skip based on this.

1781 back out change #22167 "freeing a CV reference that was currently
1782 being executed caused coredumps".
1783 The new test case sometimes locks up linux's malloc, and with
1784 Perl's malloc the test code still coredumps :-(
1787 second attempt to fix [perl #24914] freeing a CV reference that was
1788 currently being executed caused coredumps. The dounwind called by
1789 die unwinds all the contexts on the context stack before unwinding
1790 the save stack. To stop premature freeing of the CV, hold
1791 references to it on both stacks.

2030 If someone chooses xlc as default C compiler, threaded builds
2031 will fail, unless converted to cc_r
2034 AIX 3 hints split off from default hints in preparation
2035 of a hint file cleanup. aix_4.sh will follow soon
2038 AIX 3 support removed from default hints after its separation
2041 Added hints_4.sh for specific AIX 4 support
2042 this is the next stage in the general cleanup process
2043 for the AIX hints. More to come
