I see that current maint-5.12 has a function that didn't exist in 5.12.1:
$ gdiff -u perl-5_12_1/proto.h maint-5_12/proto.h

In my world this would not be considered binary compatible unless
special steps were taken to move the new symbol to the end of the
shared library. Is this not considered a problem for most/all known
linkers expected to produce the executables and shared libraries for
5.12.2?
