Changes for version 20100213.0000_01 - 2010-02-13

  • Improvements
  • mktime() and timelocal() will now make better use of the system functions giving better accuracy.
  • Build
  • Had too old a version of Module::Build listed as the requirement.
  • The limit check program was ignoring a limit of 0. Duh.
  • Fix so the check_max program is not always re-run on Cygwin.
  • Tests
  • More localtime() tests to track down the 64 bit issues
  • Failures on 64 bit systems, especially in the UK, should be fixed
  • More sanity tests for distant dates
