[perl #84358] Removing AutoLoader from DynaLoader
DynaLoader currently uses Autoloader. This was an optimization going
back to perl 5.000 in 1994. However, this implementation detail leaks in
a rather troublesome way.
DynaLoader is used by subclassing it. Because of this, when you call
some undefined method on an instance of any class that derives from
DynaLoader (directly or indirectly) you do not get this error message:
Can't locate object method "undefined_method" via package "Foo"
But this rather cryptic error:
Can't locate auto/Foo/undefined_m.al in @INC (@INC contains:
/etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0
/usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10
/usr/local/lib/site_perl .)
This is totally incomprehensible for anyone who isn't familiar with
what's going on. It was rather a premature optimization anyway if you
ask me, on my machine it's just 66 non-empty lines of code that are
being autoloaded.
Therefore, I think AutoLoader should be removed from DynaLoader.

Move dprofpp from utils/ to ext/Devel-DProf/bin
This way the script can easily be part of the CPAN distribution, where
ExtUtils::MakeMaker will do its shebang munging.
In the core, we still have utils/dprofpp.PL, which also does shebang munging and
takes care of creating `dprofpp.com' instead of just `dprofpp' on VMS, which
ExtUtils::MakeMaker doesn't seem to be up to yet.
To make this work, some things had to be moved from script-generation-time to
run-time:
* location of the stty binary
This is probably better for binary perl distributions anyway
* Devel::DProf version detection
This is needed for `dprofpp -V'. The version number used to be copied into
the script, but is now determined by actually loading Devel::DProf.
In order for this to work it's necessary to be able to load DProf without
causing profiling to start. For that, starting of the profiler has been moved
to `import', causing
require Devel::DProf;
to not trigger it anymore, while
use Devel::DProf;
(and therefore perl -d:DProf) still does.

Increase PERLIOBUF_DEFAULT_BUFSIZ to larger of 8192 and BUFSIZ.
The previous default size of a PerlIO buffer (4096 bytes) was
chosen many years ago before PerlIO was even the default I/O scheme
for Perl. Benchmarks show that doubling this decade-old default
increases read and write performance in the neighborhood of 25%
to 50% when using the default layers of perlio on top of unix.
The only situation without a noticeable performance benefit so
far appears to be when physical I/O is so slow that it dwarfs
any savings from the reduction in layer shuffling, but there
is also no performance penalty in this case.
BUFSIZ will be chosen in the unlikely event that it's larger
than 8192 on the assumption that the system maintainers would
not set such a value without good reason.
If the new size causes problems, or to try an even bigger size,
configure with:

document how tainting works with pattern matching

fix many s/// tainting bugs
This is a re-implementation of the tainting code in pp_subst and
pp_substcont. Although this fixes many bugs, because its a de-novo rewrite
of the tainting parts of the code in those two functions, it's quite
possible that it breaks some existing tainting behaviour. It doesn't break
any existing tests, although it turns out that this area was severely
under-tested anyway.
The main bugs that this commit fixes are as follows, where:
T = a tainted value
L = pattern tainted by locale (e.g. use locale; s/\w//)
Happens both with and without 'use re taint' unless specified.
Happens with all modifiers (/g, /r etc) unless explicitly mentioned.
$1 unexpectedly untainted:
s/T//
T =~ s/// under use re 'taint'
original string unexpectedly untainted:
s/L//, s/L//g
return value unexpectedly untainted:
T =~ s///g under no re 'taint'
s/L//g, s/L//r
return value unexpectedly tainted:
s/T//
s//T/r under no re 'taint'
T =~ s/// under use re 'taint'
s//T/ under use re 'taint'
Also, with /ge, the original string becomes tainted as soon as possible
(usually in the second entry to the /e code block) rather than only at the
end, in code like
$orig =~ s/T/...code.../ge
The rationale behind the taintedness of the return value of s/// (in the
non /r case), is that a boolean value shouldn't be tainted. This
corresponds to the general perl tainting policy that boolean ops don't
return tainted values. On the other hand, when it returns an integer
(number of matches), that should be tainted.
A couple of note about the old tainting code this replaces: firstly, several
occurrences of the following were NOOPs, since rxtainted was U8 and the bit
being ored was > 256:
rxtainted |= RX_MATCH_TAINTED(rx)
secondly, removing a whole bunch of the following didn't make any
existing tests fail:
TAINT_IF(rxtainted & 1);

add comprehensive m// and s/// taint tests
It turns out that taint in pattern matching and substitutions is
under-tested and buggy. Add lots of new tests to try and cover most
permutations. Several tests are TODO for now, but should get fixed by
commits to follow shortly.

Delete subroutines Socket::fake_get{addr,name}info if they are not used.
Nothing outside of Socket.pm uses them, and removing them from the symbol table
frees up about 12K. (And likely reduces the per-thread overhead under ithreads,
as their pads won't need cloning.)
