SvUPGRADE() is no longer an expression. Originally this macro (and its

in reality they always croaked on error and never returned false. In 2005
the documentation was updated to specify a void return value, but
SvUPGRADE() was left always returning 1 for backwards compatibility. This
has now been removed, and SvUPGRADE() is now a statement with no return
value.
So this is now a syntax error:

Eliminate the fifth argument from GDBM_File::TIEHASH.
This was intended to provide control of the callback used by gdbm* functions
in case of fatal errors (such as filesystem problems), but did not work (and
could never have worked). No code on CPAN even attempted to use it. The
callback is now always the previous default, croak.
This eliminates the only used of 'FATALFUNC' in the *DBM modules' type
files, so remove it from all of them.
It also eliminates a cast from a data pointer to a function pointer, which
is not legal C, and rightly upsets pedantic ANSI C compilers. The fact that
there was exactly cast, and only in one direction, gives a clue as to how
likely this was ever to work.
Nicholas Clark [Thu, 13 Dec 2012 15:38:17 +0000 (16:38 +0100)]
GDBM_File is meant to croak() if the gdbm library has a fatal error.
gdbm_open() takes a fifth argument, for an optional callback function used
to report a fatal error. Since it was added in 5.000, the tied hash wrapper
implemented in GDBM_File.xs has (intended) to default this to croak().
However, the callback expects a function taking a single const char *
argument, whereas croak(const char *pat, ...) has variable arguments.
The code as-was had two bugs
1) The calling ABI on some platforms differs between a (known) variable-
argument function, and one which takes (known) fixed arguments. As the
call site knows the pointer is to a function with fixed arguments, the
calling convention it uses doesn't match what Perl_croak_nocontext()
expects, which can lead to crashes.
2) A message containing % characters will be interpreted as a printf format.
Both these are fixed by using a small station function as a wrapper, which
takes a single string argument, and passes to croak() a "%s" format string,
followed by the string for the error message.
Add a test for this functionality.

chdir's argument is a directory in DosGlob.t.
It probably doesn't matter anywhere but VMS, but on VMS,
disk:[dir.blead]t (the result of catfile) is an invalid argument to
chdir, but disk:[dir.blead.t] (the result of catdir) is correct.

Sigh. Fix lex.t again
PERL_UNICODE can cause things to happen in a different order
internally.

{Dos,}Glob.xs: Skip freeing during global destruction
See ticket #116064.
File::Glob and ::DosGlob free data associated with a calling op when
that op is freed.
During global destruction, there is no need to do that, as it will be
freed anyway.
Also, during sv_clean_all dMY_CXT can cause us to read freed memory.

Fix occasional failures in svleak.t and DosGlob.t
If the random number of ops happens to be 0 the first time, then we
end up with a false positive, as evaluating '$x+<*>' after '<*>' will
vivify the *x glob.
