- Update MASTER_SITES: cleanup and add my LOCAL
Changes:
- More capabilities: Transaction Processing Hints, Latency Tolerance Reporting.
Thanks to Jesse Barnes.
- Added BeOS and Haiku ports. Contributed by Francois Revol.
- pciutils.pc now uses Libs.private properly.
- When we format a name and it does not fit in the buffer, we truncate it
instead of returning "buffer too small" instead. This works on all platforms
with sane (i.e., C99-compatible) snprintf().
- Various minor bug fixes.
- Updated pci.ids to the today's snapshot of the database.
Log::Dispatch::Config is a wrapper for Log::Dispatch and provides a way to
configure Log::Dispatch objects with configuration files. Somewhat like a lite
version of log4j and Log::Log4perl it allows multiple log destinations. The
standard configuration file format for Log::Dispatch::Config is AppConfig.
This module plugs in to Log::Dispatch::Config and allows the use of other file
formats, in fact any format supported by the Config::Any module. As a bonus you
can also pass in a configuration data structure instead of a file name.

Data::Clone does data cloning, i.e. copies things recursively. This is smart so
that it works with not only non-blessed references, but also with blessed
references (i.e. objects). When clone() finds an object, it calls a clone method
of the object if the object has a clone, otherwise it makes a surface copy of
the object. That is, this module does polymorphic data cloning.
Although there are several modules on CPAN which can clone data, this module has
a different cloning policy from almost all of them. See "Cloning policy" and
"Comparison to other cloning modules" [1] for details.

Test::Exception::LessClever is an alternative to Test::Exception that is much
simpler. This alternative does not use fancy stack tricks to hide itself. The
idea here is to keep it simple. This also solves the Test::Exception bug where
some dies will be hidden when a DESTROY method calls eval. If a DESTROY method
masks $@ a warning will be generated as well.

'D is not GLib' utility libraries
Ding-libs provides utility functions to manipulate filesystem
pathnames (libpath_utils), a hash table which dynamically resizes
to achieve optimal storage and access time properties (libdhash),
a data type to collect data in a hierarchical structure for easy
iteration and serialization (libcollection), a dynamically growing,
reference-counted array (libref_array), and a library to process
configuration files in initialization format (INI) into a library
collection data structure (libini_config).
