Patch from Inaba Hiroto:
- canonical UTF-8 hash keys: if a key string for a hash is
  UTF8-on, try downgrade the string and use it if
  unicode::distinct is not in effect.
  For the task, I added a function bytes_from_utf8() to utf8.c.
  It might resemble utf8_to_bytes() but it is not convenient
  to the task.
  Made a test for it and added to t/op/each.t
- Changed do_print in doio.c to apply sv_utf8_(downgrade|upgrade) to
  the mortal copy of the argument SV.
  And changed t/io/utf8.t test 18 which expects print() to
  upgrade its argument.
- re-implement sv_eq with bytes_from_utf8()
- some bug fixes
  - tr/// does not handle UTF8 range (\x{}-\x{})
  - \ before raw UTF8 character produced
    "Malformed UTF-8 character" warning.
  - "\x{100}\N{CENT SIGN}" is Malformed.
    Added tests for these 3.

Jarkko Hietaniemi [Tue, 23 Jan 2001 14:22:32 +0000 (14:22 +0000)]
A bug introduced in #8217 (the undefined variable in the
lib/safe1_t #3) fixed, by Charles Lane:

The earlier patch made it so that stuff running in Safe
compartments could do a "caller" and see "main".  That
little change in name is done right before the code in
the compartment is run, and apparantly the parser
was picking up the stash name before it got changed.

(why it was threaded vs. unthreaded Perl that was sensitive to this
I still don't know...and it probably doesn't matter).

I tryed removing the stash name-change and saw that threaded Perl
did indeed pass the lib/safe1.t tests.

So here's a patch; a routine (_safe_pkg_prep) is added to Opcode to
do the name change (and to connect _ in the compartment to the global
_) which is removed from _safe_call_sv.   Then Safe.pm is modified
to call _safe_pkg_prep when creating a new compartment.

Passes all tests with threaded perl on linux; passes all tests
with unthreaded perl on VMS.

At some point I'll probably want to revisit Safe and Opcode to
provide more sensible handling of global variables...and to get
formats working in Safe compartments, which they don't do currently.
