+Mon May 23 22:48:49 IST 2005 Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@wiw.org>
+
+ Version 2.15
+
+ Minor changes to address a couple of compile problems.
+
+Mon Apr 25 07:29:14 IST 2005 Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@wiw.org>
+
+ Version 2.14
+
+ 1. Store weak references
+ 2. Add STORABLE_attach hook.
+
+Thu Jun 17 12:26:43 BST 2004 Nicholas Clark <nick@ccl4.org>
+
+ Version 2.13
+
+ 1. Don't change the type of top level overloaded references to RV -
+ they are perfectly correct as PVMG
+ 2. Storable needs to cope with incoming frozen data that happens to be
+ utf8 encoded.
+
+Wed Mar 17 15:40:29 GMT 2004 Nicholas Clark <nick@ccl4.org>
+
+ Version 2.12
+
+ 1. Add regression tests for the auto-require of STORABLE_thaw
+ 2. Add auto-require of modules to restore overloading (and tests)
+ 3. Change to no context (should give speedup with ithreads)
+
+Sat Mar 13 20:11:03 GMT 2004 Nicholas Clark <nick@ccl4.org>
+
+ Version 2.11
+
+ 1. Storing restricted hashes in canonical order would SEGV. Fixed.
+ 2. It was impossible to retrieve references to PL_sv_no and and
+ PL_sv_undef from STORABLE_thaw hooks.
+ 3. restrict.t was failing on 5.8.0, due to 5.8.0's unique
+ implementation of restricted hashes using PL_sv_undef
+ 4. These changes allow a space optimisation for restricted hashes.
+
+Sat Jan 24 16:22:32 IST 2004 Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@wiw.org>
+
+ Version 2.10
+
+ 1. Thread safety: Storable::CLONE/init_perlinterp() now create
+ a new Perl context for each new ithread.
+ (From Stas Bekman and Jan Dubois.)
+ 2. Fix a tag count mismatch with $Storable::Deparse that caused
+ all back-references after a stored sub to be off-by-N (where
+ N was the number of code references in between).
+ (From Sam Vilain.)
+ 3. Prevent CODE references from turning into SCALAR references.
+ (From Slaven Rezic.)
+
+Sat Jan 3 18:49:18 GMT 2004 Nicholas Clark <nick@ccl4.org>
+
+ Version 2.09
+
+ Fix minor problems with the CPAN release
+ 1: Make Storable.xs work on 5.8.2 and later (already in the core)
+ 2: Ship the linux hints file
+ 3: Ship Test::More for the benefit of Perls pre 5.6.2
+ 4: Correct Makefile.PL to only install in core for 5.8.0 and later
+
+Sat Sep 6 01:08:20 IST 2003 Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@wiw.org>
+
+ Version 2.08
+
+ This release works around a 5.8.0 bug which caused hashes to not
+ be marked as having key flags even though an HEK had HEK_WASUTF8
+ set. (Note that the only reasonable solution is to silently drop
+ the flag from the affected key.)
+
+ Users of RT 3 who were seeing assertion failures should upgrade.
+ (Perl 5.8.1 will have the bug fixed.)
+
+Mon May 5 10:24:16 IST 2003 Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@wiw.org>
+
+ Version 2.07
+
+ Minor bugfixes (self-tied objects are now correctly stored, as
+ are the results of additions larger than INT_MAX).
+
+Mon Oct 7 21:56:38 BST 2002 Nicholas Clark <nick@ccl4.org>
+
+ Version 2.06
+
+ Remove qr// from t/downgrade.t so that it will run on 5.004
+ Mention $File::Spec::VERSION a second time in t/forgive.t so that it
+ runs without warnings in 5.004 (this may be a 5.00405 bug I'm working
+ round)
+ Fix t/integer.t initialisation to actually generate 64 bits of 9c
+ Fix comparison tests to use eval to get around 64 bit IV conversion
+ issues on 5.6.x, following my t/integer.t ^ precedence bug found by
+ Rafael Garcia-Suarez
+ Alter t/malice.t to work with Test/More.pm in t/, and skip individual
+ subtests that use $Config{ptrsize}, so that the rest of the test can
+ now be run with 5.004
+ Change t/malice.t and the error message in check_magic in Storable.xs
+ from "Pointer integer size" to "Pointer size"
+ Remove prerequisite of Test::More from Makefile.PL
+ Ship Test::Builder, Test::Simple and Test::More in t
+
+Thu Oct 3 08:57:22 IST 2002 Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@wiw.org>
+
+ Version 2.05
+
+ Adds support for CODE references from Slaven Rezic
+ <slaven.rezic@berlin.de>.
+
+Fri Jun 7 23:55:41 BST 2002 Nicholas Clark
+
+ Version 2.04
+
+ Bug fix from Radu Greab <radu@netsoft.ro> (plus regression test)
+ to fix a recently introduced bug detected by Dave Rolsky.
+ Bug was that for a non threaded build, the class information was
+ being lost at freeze time on the first object with a STORABLE_freeze
+ hook. Consequentially the object was not blessed at all when thawed.
+ (The presence (or lack) of STORABLE_thaw was irrelevant; this was
+ a store-time data lost bug, caused by failure to initialize internal
+ context)
+ The bug was introduced as development perl change 16442 (on
+ 2002/05/07), so has been present since 2.00.
+ Patches to introduce more regression tests to reduce the chance of
+ a reoccurance of this sort of goof are always welcome.

+
+ Version 2.03 Header changes on 5.6.x on Unix where IV is long long
+
+ 5.6.x introduced the ability to have IVs as long long. However,
+ Configure still defined BYTEORDER based on the size of a long.
+ Storable uses the BYTEORDER value as part of the header, but
+ doesn't explicity store sizeof(IV) anywhere in the header.
+ Hence on 5.6.x built with IV as long long on a platform that
+ uses Configure (ie most things except VMS and Windows) headers
+ are identical for the different IV sizes, despite the files
+ containing some fields based on sizeof(IV)
+
+ 5.8.0 is consistent; all platforms have BYTEORDER in config.h
+ based on sizeof(IV) rather than sizeof(long). This means that
+ the value of BYTEORDER will change from (say) 4321 to 87654321
+ between 5.6.1 and 5.8.0 built with the same options to Configure
+ on the same machine. This means that the Storable header will
+ differ, and the two versions will wrongly thing that they are
+ incompatible.
+
+ For the benefit of long term consistency, Storable now
+ implements the 5.8.0 BYTEORDER policy on 5.6.x. This means that
+ 2.03 onwards default to be incompatible with 2.02 and earlier
+ (ie the large 1.0.x installed base) on the same 5.6.x perl.
+
+ To allow interworking, a new variable
+ $Storable::interwork_56_64bit is introduced. It defaults to
+ false. Set it to true to read and write old format files. Don't
+ use it unless you have existing stored data written with 5.6.x
+ that you couldn't otherwise read, or you need to interwork with
+ a machine running older Storable on a 5.6.x with long long IVs
+ (i.e., you probably don't need to use it).
