This helps ensure that "hot" variables are clustered together on the same
small number of cache lines, and also that the machine code to load them
will have shorter offsets, which on some architectures may be achieved
with shorter instructions.

t/lib/common.pl should use absolute paths in @INC
t/lib/common.pl needs to run test files within a subdirectory, and hence
needs change directory into it. Changing a directory poses a problem when
running the tests, because @INC is typically '../lib'. The fix for this had
been to prepend '../../lib' to @INC, which is the correct relative path
while in the subdirectory.
However, the END block changes directory upwards (so that it can delete the
temporary directory), and in the process of deletion may end up lazy-loading
more modules. This will end up searching in ../lib first (ie outside the
build directory), which is wrong, and will cause problems if a directory lib/
exists up one level with files of the expected names (eg a lib/ directory
from a different version of Perl).

Update podlators to CPAN version 2.5.1
[DELTA]
2013-02-27 Russ Allbery <rra@stanford.edu>
* VERSION: podlators 2.5.1 released.
* t/color.t: Add Z<> to tag width test to avoid triggering the new
Pod::Parser warning about numeric items in description lists.
* t/overstrike.t: Likewise.
* t/termcap.t: Likewise.
* t/man.t: Remove the test for proper handling of lists that start
with a non-bullet and then have an item that looks like a bullet.
This now triggers a warning in Pod::Simple. Move it to...
* t/man-options.t: ...here, where we can configure the parser to
ignore errors and test that the output is correct.

Suppress experimental warning for my $_ in Devel::PPPort's tests.
This warning was missed by commit
dcd695b6ec3bf411. The patch is effectively
an update of commit
0d7b125b0c3d6ada. It requires hoop jumping with if,
because the "experimental::lexical_topic" warnings category is unrecognised
and hence a fatal error on earlier perls.

Loosen the passing requirement for a regex.
RT #116961: Olivier Menguéreported many test failures when installing
Data-Dumper v2.43 on pre-5.16.0 versions of Perl. This patch addresses only
one of those issues by relaxing what is expected in a pattern match:
'42' vs. 42. It doesn't matter for the test in question because what we are
testing is the "annotation" of array elements with their indices.

Use native-size integers for some global counters
It may be unlikely that a Perl program will hit 2 billion SVs, but by
the time that 5.18 is ancient history, it's looking a lot more likely.
This makes two global counters use native-size ints.
I'm preserving signedness just for hysterical raisins: It might be
deliberate.

Revert "Lookup overloaded assignment operators when trying to swap the arguments"
This reverts commit
f041cf0f9c6469c41de8b73d5f7b426710c3ff8b.
This is reverted in reference to [perl #113834]. Although this commit
does fix a real bug, it introduces a new one that is arguably worse.
More importantly, it is a regression from 5.16.0. We should produce a
test case that solves both bugs, then solve them both, then get that in
place. Before 5.18.0 would be nice. After 5.18.0 may have to do.

Reorder the members of struct re_save_state to reduce its size on LP64.
This drops its size by 8 bytes on LP64 platforms. This also makes the
interpreter struct 8 bytes smaller, as it embeds a re_save_state struct.

Merge the refactored S_hsplit() and Perl_hv_ksplit() and related cleanups.
Perl_hv_ksplit() now calls S_hsplit(), avoiding duplicating the code to
split hashes when they grow.

In Perl_hv_common(), call S_clear_placeholders() directly.

Clarify why hv_common() tries to clear placeholders before calling hsplit().
Which makes me realise that if we clear placeholders, we may be able to
avoid the need to split at all.
(In fact, as hv_common() only adds one key to the hash, under the current
definition of DO_HSPLIT() which only considers total number of keys,
clearing any placeholder is going to be enough to drop the total number of
keys, and so no longer trigger the split. But we'll leave the code making a
second check, to avoid a tight coupling with the internals of DO_HSPLIT().)
Nicholas Clark [Thu, 21 Feb 2013 19:54:48 +0000 (20:54 +0100)]
In S_hsplit(), replace a for with a do/while, as the loop runs at least once.
Seems pointless to check the exit condition before any iterations, when we
know that it will always be false the first time.

Pass the current and desired hash sizes to S_hsplit().
Whilst this is slightly more work for its existing two callers, it will
permit Perl_hv_ksplit() to also call it.
Use STRLEN for the parameters, and change a local variable from I32 to
STRLEN to match.
