+In a bracketed character class in a regular expression pattern, you

+is treated as if you had instead said C<[\N{U+06}-\N{U+08}]>, that is it
+matches the characters whose code points in Unicode are 6, 7, and 8.
+But that C<\x08> might indicate that you meant something different, so

-(D deprecated, regexp) The \C character class is deprecated, and will

-v5.24). This construct allows you to match a single byte of what makes
-up a multi-byte single UTF8 character, and breaks encapsulation. It is
-currently also very buggy. If you really need to process the individual
-bytes, you probably want to convert your string to one where each
-underlying byte is stored as a character, with utf8::encode().
+(W unopened) You tried chdir() on a filehandle that was never opened.
+
+=item \C no longer supported in regex; marked by S<<-- HERE> in m/%s/
+
+(F) The \C character class used to allow a match of single byte within a

+encapsulation and its implementation was extremely buggy. If you really
+need to process the individual bytes, you probably want to convert your
+string to one where each underlying byte is stored as a character, with
+utf8::encode().
=item "\c%c" is more clearly written simply as "%s"

+(W deprecated) The sysread(), recv(), syswrite() and send() operators
+are deprecated on handles that have the C<:utf8> layer, either
+explicitly, or implicitly, eg., with the C<:encoding(UTF-16LE)> layer.
+
+Both sysread() and recv() currently use only the C<:utf8> flag for the
+stream, ignoring the actual layers. Since sysread() and recv() do no
+UTF-8 validation they can end up creating invalidly encoded scalars.
+
+Similarly, syswrite() and send() use only the C<:utf8> flag, otherwise
+ignoring any layers. If the flag is set, both write the value UTF-8
+encoded, even if the layer is some different encoding, such as the
+example above.
+
+Ideally, all of these operators would completely ignore the C<:utf8>
+state, working only with bytes, but this would result in silently
+breaking existing code. To avoid this a future version of perl will
+throw an exception when any of sysread(), recv(), syswrite() or send()
