version 0.006; 2017-08-07
  * no longer include a Makefile.PL in the distribution
  * in documentation, use four-column indentation for all verbatim
    material
  * in META.{yml,json}, point to public bug tracker
version 0.005; 2015-03-29
  * avoid a spurious warning generated by new Perls starting with
    Perl 5.21.6
  * include META.json in distribution
  * convert .cvsignore to .gitignore
  * add MYMETA.json to .cvsignore
version 0.004; 2010-07-26
  * in documentation of {s,u}int_msub(), correct description that said
    "addition" instead of "subtraction"
  * in synopsis, correct number of parameters for {s,u}int_mux()
  * use simpler "parent" pragma in place of "base"
  * in documentation, use the term "truth value" instead of the less
    precise "boolean"
  * check for required Perl version at runtime
  * use full stricture in test suite
  * use full stricture in Build.PL
  * in Build.PL, explicitly declare configure-time requirements
  * remove bogus "exit 0" from Build.PL
  * add MYMETA.yml to .cvsignore
version 0.003; 2007-10-26
  * add natint_hex() and hex_natint() functions to output and input
    integer values in hexadecimal
  * add functions {n,s,u}int() to check and canonicalise native integer
    function arguments
  * add functions nint_is_{s,u}int() for classification of native integers
  * add functions {n,s,u}int_sgn(), {n,s,u}int_abs(), {n,s,u}int_cmp(),
    {n,s,u}int_min(), {n,s,u}int_max(), {n,s,u}int_neg(),
    {n,s,u}int_add(), {n,s,u}int_sub() for ordinary arithmetic on
    native integers
  * add functions {s,u}int_shl(), {s,u}int_shr(), {s,u}int_rol(),
    {s,u}int_ror() for bit shifts on native integers
  * add functions {n,u}int_bits_as_sint() and {n,s}int_bits_as_uint()
    for format conversions among native integers
  * add functions {s,u}int_not(), {s,u}int_and(), {s,u}int_nand(),
    {s,u}int_andn(), {s,u}int_or(), {s,u}int_nor(), {s,u}int_orn(),
    {s,u}int_xor(), {s,u}int_nxor(), {s,u}int_mux() for bitwise operations
    on native integers
  * add functions {s,u}int_madd(), {s,u}int_msub(), {s,u}int_cadd(),
    {s,u}int_csub(), {s,u}int_sadd(), {s,u}int_ssub() for machine-code
    style arithmetic on native integers
  * add short names (m{in,ax}_{n,s,u}int) for the extreme-value constants
  * revise the way the constants are generated to avoid floating point
    arithmetic
  * make extreme-value constants into non-constant functions that return
    fresh integer values, to avoid problems with Perl's side effects
    when an integer value is used in floating point arithmetic
  * in documentation, discuss Perl's problems in handling native integer
    values
  * in documentation, describe the integer formats
  * test consistency of constants in a more reliable and stringent manner,
    using primarily integer arithmetic
  * rearrange module source to avoid the need for the DATA filehandle
version 0.002; 2007-09-27
  * test POD syntax and coverage
  * build with Module::Build instead of ExtUtils::MakeMaker
  * complete dependency list
  * include signature in distribution
  * in documentation, separate "license" section from "copyright" section
version 0.001; 2007-01-24
  * bugfix: strategic use of "use integer" to make the arithmetic work
    right on perl 5.6
  * reference Data::Float, Scalar::Number, and perlnumber(1) in
    documentation
version 0.000; 2007-01-09
  * initial released version
