+close() on a pipe now preemptively clears the PerlIO object from the

+Extraordinarily large (over 2GB) floating point format widths could

+Parsing the following constructs within a sub-parse (such as with
+C<"${code here}"> or C<s/.../code here/e>) has changed to match how

+Incomplete hex and binary literals like C<0x> and C<0b> are now
+treated as if the C<x> or C<b> is part of the next token. [perl

+=item *
+
+A spurious C<)> in a subparse, such as in C<s/.../code here/e> or
+C<"...${code here}">, no longer confuses the parser.
+
+Previously a subparse was bracketed with generated C<(> and C<)>
+tokens, so a spurious C<)> would close the construct without doing the
+normal subparse clean up, confusing the parser and possible causing an
+assertion failure.
+
+Such constructs are now surrounded by artificial tokens that can't be
+included in the source. [perl #130585]

+Reference assignment of a sub, such as C<\&foo = \&bar;>, silently did

+sv_gets() now recovers better if the target SV is modified by a signal
+handler. [perl #134035]

+
+C<readline @foo> now evaluates C<@foo> in scalar context. Previously
+it would be evalauted in list context, and since readline() pops only
+one argument from the stack, the stack could underflow, or be left
+with unexpected values on the stack. [perl #133989]
