Fix for Coverity perl5 CID 29068: Insecure temporary file (SECURE_TEMP) secure_temp: Calling mkstemp() without securely setting umask first.
The umask used for mkstemp should be secure, but umask 0600 has been
the required umask only since POSIX.1-2008. In glibc 2.06 and earlier
the default was 0666, which is not secure. And no explicit knowledge
of how well non-glibc platforms implement mkstemp. Better err on the
side security, so set the umask temporarily to 0600, and then restore it.

Memory leak in Storable::dclone with STORABLE_freeze hook
Storable documentation recommends using dclone shortcut in
STORABLE_freeze hook: "Unless you know better, serializing hook should
always say:
sub STORABLE_freeze {
my ($self, $cloning) = @_;
return if $cloning; # Regular default serialization
....
}
in order to keep reasonable dclone() semantics."
However, this causes a memory leak which is easy to observe with the
following small script:
=== storable-leak.plx ===
use Storable qw( dclone );
package Foo {
sub new { return bless {}, __PACKAGE__ }
sub STORABLE_freeze {
my( $self, $cloning ) = @_;
# Switch to regular default serialization results in memory leak
return if $cloning;
return 'Foo';
}
}
my $d = Foo->new();
while(1)
{
dclone( $d );
}
===
The leak is caused by missing cleanup of empty array value returned by
the hook. I've attached a simple patch for Storable-2.45 which fixes
this issue.
Reported in [perl #121928]

Remove note of test failures on FAT that were fixed by perl #21442's fixes
The list of tests fixed doesn't exactly match the list in README.win32, but
all tests now pass when building/testing on FAT with the Windows OS on NTFS.

Note that the minimum supported gcc (on Windows) is 3.4.5
Earlier versions (from www.mingw.org, at least) will build perl, but have
a linker bug that causes various tests to fail due to problems with
SDBM_File.dll. See perl #121936 for details.
