is() for testing each of STDOUT and STDERR, instead of an explicit test,

In Errno, use typeglob aliasing instead of subref to typeglob assignment.
Typeglob aliasing saves just over .5K, because fewer internal structures are
created. In the general case the behaviour of the two differs, but as the
only package variables of these names are subroutines, and we are within our
own namespace, there is no difference here.

Add Config::header_files() to list the header dependencies for XS code.
Currently ExtUtils::MM_{Unix,VMS} contain hard-coded lists, which omit some
headers, and include other headers that we would like to like to eliminate.
Having the Perl installation providing the canonical list for itself allows
us to avoid the these problems.

Dispatch dl_expandspec at build time, not run time.
Before
0a0b6c96e6042658aa123b3990724be593a2bb63, dl_expandspec was
an autoloaded function that would never be called if an XS version
was already loaded. Without autoloading in DynaLoader anymore,
the pure Perl version gets loaded first, which causes trouble if
the XS version is what's expected. It looks as though VMS is the
only platform that has an XS version, so just avoid declaring the
Perl version there.

In deprecate.pm, only cluck() once if the leaf isn't found in the caller stack.
Previously, if the expected leafname was not found in the caller stack, the
code was cluck, and then continue the loop with the next directories to scan.
However, this serves no useful purpose, as the loop changes nothing that causes
the failure condition, hence all that this would result in is a second cluck()
if the next scanned directories also happened to match. Now the core returns
immediately.
