Subject: keeping in sync with perl header files
Date: Wed, 5 Jan 2011 12:11:10 +0000
To: bug-extutils-makemaker [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Dave Mitchell <davem [...] iabyn.com>
The perl5 commit 1daf3b755691d9e2e52b73fcc1111714808c874a makes a slight change to MM_Unix.pm and MM_VMS.pm because it removes the header file cc_runtime.h from core. Note also that the core header file perliol.h should be listed as a dependency in the various MM_*.pm files, but isn't. (This file has been in core since 5.7.2). More generally, there is no mechanism to generate this list of dependencies automatically. See Nicholas' p5p in <20101116212807.GM24189@plum.flirble.org>. -- The warp engines start playing up a bit, but seem to sort themselves out after a while without any intervention from boy genius Wesley Crusher. -- Things That Never Happen in "Star Trek" #17
