Changes for version 1.22 - 2011-05-01
- prepend staticperl binary install path to PATH when running any commands - will help many broken modules and scripts (e.g. those using the broken #!env perl hack), but will also make life easier for "staticperl cpan / look" users.
- use empty PERL_OPTIMIZE flags in testsuite for higher portability.
- unset PERL_CORE and PERL_MB_OPT variables because these modules are part of perl - set them in your staticperlrc instead.
- disable MAN1PODS and MAN3PODS in PERL_MM_OPT, to make Glib, Cairo, Pango and Gtk2 build.
- patch ExtUtils::MM_Unix to search for static archives in blib more often, as it doesn't detect Pango as being an XS module (which is a bug in Pango).
- create a patch helper (SP-patch-postinstall) that is executed after perl and eahc module install to do some important patches.
- rename the cpan-make-inmstall helper to SP-make-install-make.
- write mkbundle to bin/SP-mkbundle.
- new "staticperl perl" command.
- updated small/bigperl to 5.12.3.
