Subject: Bleadperl v5.13.8-301-gd658a8a breaks PIO:v:ES 9
As per subject. The commit message of that revision explains: commit d658a8a81c4f311bef688fd51df924a424429f14 Author: David Mitchell <davem@iabyn.com> Date: Sun Jan 16 14:16:20 2011 +0000 restrict \p{IsUserDefined} to In\w+ and In\w+ In L<perlunicode/"User-Defined Character Properties">, it says you can create custom properties by defining subroutines whose names begin with "In" or "Is". However, perl doesn't actually enforce that naming restriction, so \p{foo::bar} will call foo::Bar() if it exists. This commit finally enforces this convention. Note that this broke a number of existing tests for properties, since they didn't always use an Is/In prefix. HTH, Regards,

I name the property _IsZero so that it's a private sub _IsZero { "chars" } Is that going to be broken? Is it still possible to make the sub slightly private like that? I also then use the property outside its defining package like /\p{Foo::Bar::_IsZero}/ It's only for some testing, but is an explicit package name for a property allowed, or can it be used only in the defining package? Only in the defining package would seem like an unnecessary restriction.

Package names are freely chooseable. % /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/v5.13.8-301-gd658a8a/bin/perl -le ' sub IsKevin { qq{0033\t0033\n} } sub Foo::IsKevin { qq{0033\t0033\n} } sub _IsKevin { qq{0033\t0033\n} } print "3" =~ /\p{IsKevin}/; print "3" =~ /\p{Foo::IsKevin}/; print "3" =~ /\p{_IsKevin}/; ' 1 1 Can't find Unicode property definition "_IsKevin" at -e line 7.

Thanks, I uploaded a version 10 which might work.
