  • Bug Fixes
  • Guard against a path to Perl with a space in it. From Max Maischein. [bleadperl@32905]
  • Test Fixes
  • Small fix for VOS from Paul Green [bleadperl@33259]
  • Other
  • $ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Revision, $ExtUtils::MM_Unix::Revision and $ExtUtils::MM_VMS::Revision are all now based on $VERSION. You shouldn't be using them for anything anyway.
