perl-5.22.0-RC2 - The Perl 5 language interpreter

Changes for version 5.22.0

L<[perl #122655]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122655>
=item *
Constant folding could incorrectly suppress warnings if lexical warnings (C<use warnings> or C<no warnings>) were not in effect and C<$^W> were false at compile time and true at run time.
=item *
Loading Unicode tables during a regular expression match could cause assertion failures under debugging builds if the previous match used the very same regular expression. L<[perl #122747]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122747>
=item *
Thread cloning used to work incorrectly for lexical subs, possibly causing crashes or double frees on exit.
=item *
Since Perl 5.14.0, deleting C<$SomePackage::{__ANON__}> and then undefining an anonymous subroutine could corrupt things internally, resulting in L<Devel::Peek> crashing or L<B.pm|B> giving nonsensical data. This has been fixed.
=item *
S<C<(caller $n)[3]>> now reports names of lexical subs, instead of treating them as C<"(unknown)">.
=item *
C<sort subname LIST> now supports using a lexical sub as the comparison routine.
=item *
Aliasing (e.g., via S<C<*x = *y>>) could confuse list assignments that mention the two names for the same variable on either side, causing wrong values to be assigned. L<[perl #15667]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=15667>
=item *
Long here-doc terminators could cause a bad read on short lines of input. This has been fixed. It is doubtful that any crash could have occurred. This bug goes back to when here-docs were introduced in Perl 3.000 twenty-five years ago.
=item *
An optimization in C<split> to treat S<C<split /^/>> like S<C<split /^/m>> had the unfortunate side-effect of also treating S<C<split /\A/>> like S<C<split /^/m>>, which it should not. This has been fixed. (Note, however, that S<C<split /^x/>> does not behave like S<C<split /^x/m>>, which is also considered to be a bug and will be fixed in a future version.) L<[perl #122761]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122761>
=item *
The little-known S<C<my Class $var>> syntax (see L<fields> and L<attributes>) could get confused in the scope of C<use utf8> if C<Class> were a constant whose value contained Latin-1 characters.
=item *
Locking and unlocking values via L<Hash::Util> or C<Internals::SvREADONLY> no longer has any effect on values that were read-only to begin with. Previously, unlocking such values could result in crashes, hangs or other erratic behaviour.
=item *
Some unterminated C<(?(...)...)> constructs in regular expressions would either crash or give erroneous error messages. C</(?(1)/> is one such example.
=item *
S<C<pack "w", $tied>> no longer calls FETCH twice.
=item *
List assignments like S<C<($x, $z) = (1, $y)>> now work correctly if C<$x> and C<$y> have been aliased by C<foreach>.
=item *
Some patterns including code blocks with syntax errors, such as S<C</ (?{(^{})/>>, would hang or fail assertions on debugging builds. Now they produce errors.
=item *
An assertion failure when parsing C<sort> with debugging enabled has been fixed. L<[perl #122771]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122771>.
=item *
S<C<*a = *b; @a = split //, $b[1]>> could do a bad read and produce junk results.
=item *
In S<C<() = @array = split>>, the S<C<() =>> at the beginning no longer confuses the optimizer into assuming a limit of 1.
=item *
Fatal warnings no longer prevent the output of syntax errors. L<[perl #122966]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122966>.
=item *
Fixed a NaN double-to-long-double conversion error on VMS. For quiet NaNs (and only on Itanium, not Alpha) negative infinity instead of NaN was produced.
=item *
Fixed the issue that caused C<< make distclean >> to incorrectly leave some files behind. L<[perl #122820]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122820>.
=item *
AIX now sets the length in C<< getsockopt >> correctly. L<[perl #120835]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=120835>. L<[cpan #91183]|https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=91183>. L<[cpan #85570]|https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=85570>.
=item *
The optimization phase of a regexp compilation could run "forever" and exhaust all memory under certain circumstances; now fixed. L<[perl #122283]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122283>.
=item *
The test script F<< t/op/crypt.t >> now uses the SHA-256 algorithm if the default one is disabled, rather than giving failures. L<[perl #121591]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=121591>.
=item *
Fixed an off-by-one error when setting the size of a shared array. L<[perl #122950]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122950>.
=item *
Fixed a bug that could cause perl to enter an infinite loop during compilation. In particular, a C<while(1)> within a sublist, e.g.
- sub foo { () = ($a, my $b, ($c, do { while(1) {} })) }
The bug was introduced in 5.20.0 L<[perl #122995]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122995>.
=item *
On Win32, if a variable was C<local>-ized in a pseudo-process that later forked, restoring the original value in the child pseudo-process caused memory corruption and a crash in the child pseudo-process (and therefore the OS process). L<[perl #40565]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=40565>.
=item *
Calling C<write> on a format with a C<^**> field could produce a panic in C<sv_chop()> if there were insufficient arguments or if the variable used to fill the field was empty. L<[perl #123245]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=123245>.
=item *
Non-ASCII lexical sub names now appear without trailing junk when they appear in error messages.
=item *
The C<\@> subroutine prototype no longer flattens parenthesized arrays (taking a reference to each element), but takes a reference to the array itself. L<[perl #47363]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=47363>.
=item *
A block containing nothing except a C-style C<for> loop could corrupt the stack, causing lists outside the block to lose elements or have elements overwritten. This could happen with C<map { for(...){...} } ...> and with lists containing C<do { for(...){...} }>. L<[perl #123286]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=123286>.
=item *
C<scalar()> now propagates lvalue context, so that S<C<for(scalar($#foo)) { ... }>> can modify C<$#foo> through C<$_>.
=item *
C<qr/@array(?{block})/> no longer dies with "Bizarre copy of ARRAY". L<[perl #123344]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=123344>.
=item *
S<C<eval '$variable'>> in nested named subroutines would sometimes look up a global variable even with a lexical variable in scope.
=item *
In perl 5.20.0, C<sort CORE::fake> where 'fake' is anything other than a keyword, started chopping off the last 6 characters and treating the result as a sort sub name. The previous behaviour of treating "CORE::fake" as a sort sub name has been restored. L<[perl #123410]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=123410>.
=item *
Outside of C<use utf8>, a single-character Latin-1 lexical variable is disallowed. The error message for it, "Can't use global C<$foo>...", was giving garbage instead of the variable name.
=item *
C<readline> on a nonexistent handle was causing C<${^LAST_FH}> to produce a reference to an undefined scalar (or fail an assertion). Now C<${^LAST_FH}> ends up undefined.
=item *
C<(...) x ...> in void context now applies scalar context to the left-hand argument, instead of the context the current sub was called in. L<[perl #123020]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=123020>.
=back
=head1 Known Problems
=over 4
=item *
C<pack>-ing a NaN on a perl compiled with Visual C 6 does not behave properly, leading to a test failure in F<t/op/infnan.t>. L<[perl 125203]|https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=125203>
=item *
A goal is for Perl to be able to be recompiled to work reasonably well on any Unicode version. In Perl 5.22, though, the earliest such version is Unicode
