Changes since 1.99_18:
$r->hostname is now writable [Gozer]
Static build with a Perl without ithreads and a non-threaded MPM would segfault on startup. Caused by a bug in perl's perl_shutdown() code. Fixed in Perl 5.8.2, so it's now a build requirement [Gozer]
replace the added in 1.99_17 code on resetting/restoring PL_tainted, with explicit reset before and after each each callback. This solves a complicated tainting issues caused when perl exception object is thrown. rgs suggested that it should be safe, similar to perl's own pp_nextstate which says: /* Each statement is presumed innocent */ [Stas]
New configuration directives: [Gozer]
- PerlConfigRequire
Just like PerlRequire, but _always_ triggers an immediate
interpreter startup
- PerlPostConfigRequire
A delayed form of PerlRequire, that waits until the post_config
phase before require'ing filesfix a warning in Apache::Status [John Williams <williams tni.com>]
Ignore Apache-Test/META.yml in distribution tarballs until PAUSE is capable of handling multiple META.yml files in one distro [Gozer]
modperl_exports.c now wraps all exported functions in a #ifndef function_name wrapper to help in weeding out functions that only make sense for certain Perl configurations (perlio, threads) (which also fixes static build against perlio-disabled perls, like 5.6.x) [Gozer]
for make test, skip configuring fastcgi if it's found in the global httpd.conf, as it causes crashes in the test suite [Stas]
fix Makefile.PL arguments parser to support more than one MP_foo option on the same line (including .makepl_args.mod_perl2 file) [Stas]
fix compilation issues in ModPerl::Util::current_perl_id (on some builds newSVpvf can't be resolved but Perl_newSVpvf works just fine). [Stas, Markus Wichitill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>]
fix APR::Error::str to return a lexical variable, rather than a string. This function is called by SvTRUE in modperl_errsv() via overload and on win32 (and randomly on linux) causes crashes via: "Attempt to free temp prematurely" warning, where this 'temp' is the string returned by this function. Making it a lexical variable before returning it, resolves the problem. [Steve Hay]
fix META.yaml s/private/no_index/ (to hide the bundled Apache-Test from PAUSE indexer) [Randy Kobes]
