A few random thoughts about more unfinished business:
- building bleadperl with Borland currently doesn't work:
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2007-01/msg00126.html
- the behaviour of pseudo-fork inside a BEGIN seems to have been
changed. Not sure if it's OK or not:
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2007-01/msg00099.html
- one of my modules currently doesn't work with bleadperl: see bug
#41030, and also here:
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2006-12/msg00026.html
- ext/threads/shared/t/cond.t currently hangs just about every time
(which is the cause of the absence of any bleadperl smokes from my
machine for ages):
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2006-12/msg00273.html
- ext/IO/t/io_sock.t currently hangs when perl is built with VC8. It is
noted in README.win32, but a fix would be nicer.
