Changes for version 3.09 - 2005-06-14

  • Added some block delimiters (brackets) in the Perl_getcwd_sv() XS function, which were necessary to separate the variable declarations from the statements when HAS_GETCWD is not defined. [Yves]
  • Apparently the _NT_cwd() routine is never defined externally like I thought it was, so I simplified the code around it.
  • When cwd() is implemented using the _backtick_pwd() function, it sometimes could create accidental undef entries in %ENV under perl 5.6, because local($hash{key}) is somewhat broken. This is now fixed with an appropriate workaround. [Neil Watkiss]
