Changes for version 1.005000 - 2010-03-10

  • More robust handling of running new toolchains on older perls. This should sort out issues users have with bootstrapping on e.g. Solaris and other traditional Unices. In addition, try to find a GNU tar capable of dealing with @LongLink so bootstrapping doesn't fail.
  • Warnings for missing PATH/PERL5LIB (as when not running interactively) silenced by a patch from Marco Emilio Poleggi.
  • Start of better docs for C<--self-contained> thanks to markstos@cpan.org.

Modules

create and use a local lib/ for perl modules with PERL5LIB
