perldelta: “Internal Changes”

Hi all,

	perldelta describes its “Internal Changes” section thus: “Changes which affect the interface available to C<XS> code go here.” The interface for XS modules is just Perl’s C API. By definition, isn’t an API external-facing?

	By that logic, changes like Paul’s new sv_numeq and sv_streq (and my proposed change to sv_dump() to output hex rather than octal) don’t really seem like “internal” changes.

	Would it perhaps be more sensible to make a separate section named “C API Changes”, then reserve “Internal Changes” for those updates that are indeed purely internal to Perl?

	Thanks!

Cheers,
-Felipe
