As part of their switch to a multi-arch library layout,
Ubuntu 11.04 (and later, presumably) doesn't keep most libraries
(such as -lm) in /lib or /usr/lib. So we have to ask gcc to tell us
where to look. We don't want gcc's own libraries, however, so we
filter those out.
This could be conditional on Ubuntu, but other distributions have
announced their intent follow suit, and this scheme seems to work even
on rather old gcc's. This unconditionally uses gcc because even if the
user is using another compiler, we still need to find the math library
and friends, and I don't know how other compilers will cope with that
situation. Still, as an escape hatch, allow Configure command line
overrides to plibpth to bypass this check.

Followup to 088225f/[perl #88132]: packages ending with :
Commit 088225f was not sufficient to fix the regression. It still
exists for packages whose names end with a single colon.
I discovered this when trying to determine why RDF::Trine was crashing
with 5.14-to-be.
In trying to write tests for it, I ended up triggering the same crash
that RDF::Trine is having, but in a different way.
In the end, it was easier to fix about three or four bugs (depending
on how you count them), rather than try to fix only the regression
that #88132 deals with (isa caches not updating when packages ending
with colons are aliased), as they are all intertwined.
The changes are as follows:
Concerning the if (!(flags & ~GV_NOADD_MASK)...) statement in
gv_stashpvn: Normally, gv_fetchpvn_flags (which it calls and whose
retval is assigned to tmpgv) returns NULL if it has not been told
to add anything and if the gv requested looks like a stash gv (ends
with ::). If the number of colons is odd (foo:::), that code path is
bypassed, so gv_stashpvn returns a GV without a hash. So gv_stashpvn
tries to used that NULL hash and crashes. It should instead return
NULL, to be consistent with the two-colon case.
Blindly assigning a name to a stash does not work if the stash has
multiple effective names. A call to mro_package_moved is required as
well. So what gv_stashpvn was doing was insufficient.
The parts of the mro code that check for globs or stash elems that
contain stashes by looking for :: at the end of the name now take into
account that the name might consist of a single : instead.

[perl #88486] IO::File does not always export SEEK*
Commit d963bf0 made perl set @IO::File::ISA automagically.
Commit 15e6cdd made filehandle methods load IO::File automagically.
Commit efc5c7c attempted to solve the problem that having IO::Handle
loaded causes IO::File to be bypassed, rendering 15e6cdd only
semi-effective (see [perl #87940]), by requiring IO::File inside
IO::Handle.
That commit ended up breaking several CPAN modules, because IO::File
adds @IO::Seekable::EXPORT to its own exports.
If IO::Seekable is loaded first (before IO::File), before setting up
its @EXPORT it loads IO::Handle, which loads IO::File, which tries to
load IO::Seekable, which is in %INC already, and which is hence wait-
ing for IO::File to load before it sets its own @EXPORT. So IO::File
sees @IO::Seekable::EXPORT empty.
Hence, every piece of code that tries to import SEEK_END from IO::File
will simply not get it if IO::Seekable is already loaded (explicitly
or, e.g., by File::Temp).
This commit hopefully fixes the breakage and the problem that efc5c7c
attempted to fix by loading IO::File only inside IO::Handle::new (the
only method that IO::File overrides).

[perl #88132] broken ISA lookup after aliasing packages ending with ::
gv_fetchpvn_flags did not always assign a name to a return HV ending
with ::. This would result in code in various places skipping certain
‘stashes’ (in quotes because nameless HVs are technically not stashes)
because they were nameless when they should not have been.
So sometimes ISA caches would end up being out of date, as in the test
cases posted with [perl #88132] (and incorporated into this patch).
This commit fixes that by changing the parsing of glob names.
Formerly, a :: was not considered a package separator if it came imme-
diately after a ::. So foo:::: would become foo::/:: (with the final
:: considered a regular stash entry, not a ‘stash’ stash entry) and
foo:::::: would become foo::/:::/:.
Now a :: is always a package separator. So *foo::::bar is accessible
via $foo::{"::"}{bar} and *$foo:::::: via $foo::{"::"}{"::"}.
This happens to fix [perl #88134] as well.

handle freed backref array in global cleanup
[perl #88330]
If a thinggy is heavily leaked, so that it takes multiple passes through
Perl_sv_clean_all to get its refcount to zero, then if it has weak refs to

refcount of the array to 2 to preserve it across one pass of

generally (short of using a private array structure rather than an AV).
In the past, this caused a scary assertion failure.
Now instead, just skip if we're in global cleanup and the array is freed.
This isn't ideal, but its reasonably robust, as we don't reuse freed SVs
once in global cleanup (so the freed AV hangs around to be identified as
such).

regcomp: Improve error message for (?-d:...)
As agreed, this improvement is going into 5.14. A customized
message is output, instead of a generic one.

PATCH: [perl #86972]: Tweak error messages
An earlier commit in this series changed some error messages.
I realized that it did not make sense really to use "/a" for the regex
modifier, when the message was for the infix form "(?a:", so this
just removes the slash.

Fix eval.t under minitest, inadvertently broken by
0d804ff61f3a2df2
That change attempted to skip if use Devel::Peek failed with a skip message of
of $@. Unfortunately, in this situation, $@ has multiple lines, which is not
valid as a skip message. So instead skip if we're miniperl, or we haven't built
Devel::Peek, otherwise attempt to run the test.

Require IO::File in IO::Handle
Since 15e6cdd IO::File has been loaded automatically. However this
automatic loading would not happen in all cases if IO::Handle was
loaded previously. This is due to the @ISA for IO::File being
initialised by the core (see the discussion in [perl #87940]).
By ensuring IO::File is loaded if IO::Handle is the indeterminate
state cannot occur.

PATCH: partial [perl #86972]: Allow /(?aia)/
This allows a second regex 'a' modifier in the infix form to not have to
be contiguous with the first, and improves the message if there are extra
modifiers.

PATCH: [perl #87812] BBC breaks Pod::Coverage::TrustPod
This patch completes the fixing of this problem. The problem is that
the failing .t set @INC to exclude lib, and hence couldn't find utf8.pm,
which 5.14 was requiring in places where it previously didn't. This
patch finishes the job of not requiring utf8.pm in so many places as
were inadvertently added in 5.14. Commit
3ad98780b4bded02c371c83a668dc8f323e57718 started the job.
This patch changes regcomp.c to not set ANYOF_NONBITMAP_NON_UTF8 where
it inappropriately was. I don't know what I was thinking when I
originally did what this changes. In order to match outside the bitmap,
these characters all must match something that requires utf8, such as a
LIGATURE FI.

regcomp.c: Shun ANYOF_NONBITMAP_NON_UTF8
As noted in the comments in the code for this commit, this flag has
higher consequences than others when it is inappropriately set in the
synthetic start class. This patch causes it to not be set unless there
is some path in the regex engine that needs it, but once set it is never
cleared. This results in a different set of false positives than
currently, but the current set can have this set even if there is no
path in the engine that needs it.

perldelta for [perl #87708]
In fixing the regression that #87708 represents, I could not avoid
also fixing this swapped-operand bug, so it needs a perldelta entry.
I also fixed a tiny formatting error.

Revert parts of c31c291..96b6b87
This restores the old definition of dPOPTOPiirl_nomg from
before 96b6b87 and the old definition of dPOPXiirl_ul_nomg from
before e62ca0f (except for a bug fix: POPi cannot be used since
it’s magical). It also reverts most of c31c291.
This does mean that uninitialized warnings for various operators are
back in reverse order. So I am reinstating a bug with this commit. But
that bug was never a 5.14 blocker and so should never have been fixed
during code freeze (and there is the slight possibility that the fix
would break sensitive test suites). It was only fixed ‘for free’ as a
side effect of fixing [perl #87708], but that bug turned out to have a
better fix (commit 75ea7a1) that allows these changes to be reverted.
