The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 0.05

  • Increased dependency on load.pm to 0.11: versions of load.pm before that had issues with running under taint.
  • Debug statements can now be activated by setting the environment variable THREADS_DEBUG to true. As this is still experimental, this feature is only described in the CHANGELOG for now.
  • Fixed several issues when running under taint. Test-suite now runs in tainted mode just to be on the safe side.
  • Removed some debug statements from the test-suite.
