Hi Paul,
autodie 1.998 has now been provisionally merged into 5.10.x!
The main thing I'm concerned about is that it includes a fairly large
rewrite of Fatal.pm, to the extent that its not obvious to me
what's changed.
So, what, if anything, has changed in Fatal.pm that might be of interest or
concern to someone upgrading from 5.10.0 to 5.10.1?
Also, if there's anything there that might break backwards compatibility,
is it viable to ship autodie.pm but leave the old Fatal.pm?
thanks,
Dave
