Well, I was hoping that I could wait until Perl 5.004 was released but
it looks like I'm running out of time. After recovering from a nasty
system crash and redoing some stuff, I will have all the bugs cleared by
the end of this weekend except for the following:
Probably not:
#3847: Perl and G++
#2241: Perl 5.003-2 handles LANG and LC_* poorly
(possibly send upstream. It's being discussion on perl5porters)
Hopefully but no guarantee:
#4871: perl5 bug, probably memory management, triggered by bug scripts
#3785: perl_5.003-2.deb (in "rex") and "mirror"
#3434: pod2latex: E<szlig>, =over/=cut/=pod/=item not handled correctly
#4206: Perl `pod' documentation should be in /usr/doc or not installed
Everything else will be taken care by the end of this weekend. I've
generated and hand-editted the h2ph .ph files that will probably be
needed.
