[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So sometimes ISA caches would end up being out of date, as in the test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.

[perl #87708] Fix ‘$tied binop $tied’
The short story: In 5.13.1 or .2 these ops started calling get-magic
just once if the same gmagical scalar was used for both operands. Then
the same value would be used on both sides. In 5.12 FETCH would be
called twice with both return values used, but they would be swapped
in most cases (so $t/$t would return 1.5 if $t returned 2 and then
3). Now FETCH is called twice and the two operands are used in the
right order.
Up till now there have been patches to fix specific ops, but I real-
ised that the same ten or so lines of code would have to be added to
the rest of the 20+ pp_ functions, all of which use tryAMAGICbin_MG
(which calls Perl_try_amagic_bin in gv.c), so it made sense to add the
code to Perl_try_amagic_bin instead. This fixes all the ops in one
fell swoop.
The code in question checks whether the left and right operands are
the same gmagical scalar. If so, it copies the scalar into a new mor-
tal one, and then calls get-magic on the original operand to get its
new value (for the rhs). The new scalar is placed just below the top
of the stack, so it becomes the left operand.
This does slow down the bitwise integer ops slightly, but only in this
rare edge case. And the simplification of the code seems worth it.
Forthcoming are commits that revert some of the changes already made,
as this commit renders them unnecessary.

this edge cases due to the extra allocation, leaves the most common

gv_fetch_pvn_flags, when it parses a "::", sets the next subname to
point to the character after the second colon, and then continues
scanning from the next character *after* that. So foo::::bar becomes
$foo::{"::bar"} and main:::: becomes $main::{"::"}.
The code that assigns the name to the stash and the early exit are
both inside an if(we have a package separator) block, but the final ::
is not considered one, so a nameless hash is returned.

make mg_clear() et al behave when RC==0
The functions S_save_magic() and S_restore_magic(), which are called by
mg_get(), mg_set(), mg_length(), mg_size() and mg_clear(),
are not robust when called with an SV whose reference count is zero.
Basically, one of the actions of S_save_magic() is to temporarily
increase the refcount of the SV, and then for S_restore_magic() to reduce
it again at the end, so that if any of the magic functions called
inbetween decrease the count, it won't be prematurely freed.
However, if the count starts at zero, then bumping it up and bringing it
back down to zero, triggers a spurious second freeing.
So, if its zero, just skip the whole bumping thing.
Now, we shouldn't really be calling these functions will a zero-refcount
SV, but these things happen, and its best to be robust.
In particular, this fixes RT #87860, which was ultimately triggered by a
bug in Set::Object 1.28 that managed to create an HV with null SvMAGIC
field, but with the RMG flag set.
When freeing that HV, sv_clear() skips doing mg_free() because SvMAGIC is
null, whereas later it calls Perl_hv_undef_flags, which calls mg_clear()

needs exactly the same treatment, so this commit eliminates the
dPOPTOPiirl_halfmg macro added a few commits ago and modifies
dPOPTOPiirl_nomg to do was it was doing. This should be perfectly
safe, as dPOPTOPiirl_nomg has not been in a stable release (and is
only for internal use anyway).

In Darwin's hints, only add -no-cpp-precomp to ccflags if it's not an error.
Previously -no-cpp-precomp was added uncondtionally to cppflags and ccflags.
Apple's compiler accepts this unconditionally. gcc 4.5 warns about it, but
ignores it. gcc 4.6 treats the unknown flag as an error. Hence test whether
the flag causes problems, and only add it if it does not.
(Searching with Google suggests that this flag has been unnecessary on OS X
for some time. However, there's no clear documentation about it to confirm
when it stopped being necessary.)

Make ExtUtils::CBuilder reset ccflags on compile for VMS.
On VMS only, the /DEFINE and /INCLUDE qualifiers are parsed off the
local copy of $Config{ccflags} and consumed in the process. This is
necessary because you're only allowed one of each of these clauses
in the compile command, so to add whatever has been requested for a
specific compile, we have to combine them with whatever Perl was
built with.
But since they are consumed, multiple compiles on the same EU::CB
object were only using the correct flags for the first one. Even
calling the have_compiler() check before compile() would make the
latter miss the defines and includes that were used to build Perl.
The solution is add a platform override that resets the local copy
of $Config{ccflags} from its original in %Config every time a
compiler operation is initiated.
Fixes smoke failures in ExtUtils::ParseXS.

[perl #87664] Don’t autovivify stashes when anonymising CVs
This commit stops CV anonymisation from autovivifying stashes to point
to (unless the stash is %__ANON__::).
If a stash has been deleted from its original position in the symbol
table, then its HvNAME will no longer indicate where to find it.
S_anonymise_cv_maybe in sv.c was using the HvNAME to look up (and
autovivify) the *__ANON__ glob in the stash, without taking into
account that it might not actually be looking in the right spot.
So now, after checking that the stash still has a name (HvNAME), it
uses the HvENAME to find it. If the HvENAME is null, which indicates
that the stash has been detached altogether, then %__ANON__:: is used,
as happens when HvNAME is null.
This solves a Class::Monadic failure introduced by commit
2d0d1eccfc
([perl #79208] %stash:: = () anonymises CVs), which was included
in 5.13.7.
Basically, it can be reduced to this:

[perl #87064] eval no longer shares filters

remove filter inheritance option from lex_start
The only uses of lex_start that had the new_filter parameter false,
to make the new lexer context share source filters with the previous
lexer context, were uses with rsfp null, which therefore never invoked
source filters. Inheriting source filters from a logically unrelated
file seems like a silly idea anyway.
string evals could inherit the same source filter space as the cur-
rently compiling code. Despite what the quoted commit message says,
sharing source filters allows filters to be inherited in both direc-
tions: A source filter created when the eval is being compiled also
applies to the file with which it is sharing its space.
There are at least 20 CPAN distributions relying on this behaviour
(or, rather, what could be considered a Test::More bug). So this com-
mit restores the source-filter-sharing capability. It does not change
the current API or make public the API for sharing source filters, as
this is supposed to be a temporary stop-gap measure for 5.14.
