Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Coro to 6.23:

    • Use experimental fiber implementation on native Windows perls
    • Use sizeof (void *) as multiplication factor for stack sizes, to accommodate the totally braindamaged Microsoft 64 bit "os"

    • Changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64; activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes the test suite

    • Implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly improved compatibility with LWP

    • Implement 5.17 compatibility by almost blindly applying a good-looking patch by Father Chrysostomos
    • Move stack management functions into libcoro 3

    • libcoro version 3 "released"

    • Support magic values as timed_io_once args

    • Recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+; also require EV version 4 or newer for Coro::EV

  • Updated perl-Software-License to 0.103005:

    • Add MPL 2.0
