Subject: | Support parser variables |
In previous versions of perl several variables related to the parser,
like PL_linestr, PL_bufptr, PL_bufend and PL_lex_stuff, have been
available in the perlapi. With 5.10 those have been moved to the newly
created PL_parser.
Backward compatibility to the old PL_* variables exists only as a series
of #defines in toke.c and is therefor not usable for the outside world,
which was able to use those variables before.
