Subject:

[PATCH] Fix multiple inheritance for c3

cperl switched to c3 already (perl5 might do later evtl.) and fails with "Inconsistent hierarchy during C3 merge". With multiple inheritance (@ISA>1), the c3 mro refuses to load the most specific after the least specific base class. The general rule to avoid inconsistency for @ISA is from most specific to least specific. I.e. Exporter needs to be the last -- Reini Urban

Thanks for the patch, but what is "c3" and "mro"?
