distribution.

Upstream changes:
2017-01-11 v1.3003 pjacklam
* Fix syntax for required version of Math::BigInt::Lib.
* Better checking of POD coverage.
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999808.
* _from_hex() now accepts input without a "0x" prefix.
* _from_bin() is more now efficient as it utilises the fact that
Math::Pari::_hex_cvt() assumes the input is binary if the strings is
prefixed by "0b".
* Implement _to_hex(), _to_oct(), and _to_bin() for conversion to hexadecimal,
octal, and binary without prefix.
* Fix _nok() to work around a bug in Math::Pari::binomial(). It doesn't
correctly handle cases where both n and k are very large.
* Correct a few cases where non-OO syntax was used, e.g., "$x = _one();"
should be "$x = $class -> _one();".
* _inc() and _dec() now uses post-increment and post-decrement, respectively,
rather than adding or subtracting one.
* In test file t/01load.t, display the PARI library version number.
2016-12-03 v1.3002 pjacklam
* Use ExtUtils::MakeMaker rather than Module::Install in Makefile.PL
* Remove author information in LICENSE file.
2016-11-23 v1.3001 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999801. Add t/mbi_rand.t, t/mbimbf.t,
and t/mbimbf.inc since these are included in the test suite for the other
backend libraries (GMP and Pari).
* Add _nok() by using Pari's binomial() function.
* Add _lcm() by using Pari's lcm() function.
2016-11-15 v1.3000 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999800.
* Math::BigInt::Pari is now a subclass of Math::BigInt::Lib, so remove pure
Perl methods from Math::BigInt::Pari that are implemented in the superclass
Math::BigInt::Lib. The methods removed are _modinv() and _log_int(). The
version of _log_int() implemented in Math::BigInt::GMP was buggy anyway.
* Add methods _str() and _set(), and correct _num() method.
Upstream changes:
2016-04-25 v1.27 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999719.
2016-04-22 v1.26 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999718.
2016-01-03 v1.25 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999714.
2015-12-31 v1.24 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999713.
2015-11-22 v1.23 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999709.
* In v1.22 the required version of Math-BigInt was set to 1.999703, but it
should have been 1.999706. The required version is now 1.999709.
* Correct error in CHANGES file.
2015-11-09 v1.22 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999709.
* Update the README file.
* Remove the LICENSE file as this information is already covered in the file
README.
* Replace 'use vars ...' with 'our ...'. We require a Perl newer than 5.6.0
anyway.
* Move 'Test::More' from 'build_requires' to 'test_requires' in Makefile.PL.
* Enable 'use warnings'. We require a Perl newer than 5.6.0 anyway.
* Add 'assertlib.*\.exe' to MANIFEST.SKIP, since make generates temporary
files like 'assertlibzxjE4WfG.exe' on Cygwin.
2015-09-21 v1.21 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999703.
* Required version of Math-BigInt is now 1.999703.
* Update author information.
2015-09-17 v1.20 pjacklam
* Sync test files with Math-BigInt-1.999702.
* Required version of Math-BigInt is now 1.999702.
2015-09-11 v1.19 pjacklam
bigfltpm.inc

t/bigroot.t

t/*.t
* Add "use warnings" to test scripts, since Perl 5.6.2 is required anyway,
and "use warnings" was introduced in Perl 5.6.1.
* Modified test scripts so the difference between the test files in the
Math-BigInt distribution and the backend distributions are as few and as
small as possible. This makes for easier release management.
2014-04-03 v1.18 pjacklam
* Updated test files from the Math::BigInt distribution (Peter John Acklam).
* Updated POD (Peter John Acklam)
2011-09-04 v1.17 pjacklam
* Upgrade bundled modules in "inc" to latest version. (Peter John Acklam)
* Math::BigInt::GMP now requires Math::BigInt v1.997 (Peter John Acklam).
* Include "^MYMETA\.(yml|json)\z" in MANIFEST.SKIP. Whereas META.* are
generated by the distribution author at packaging time, MYMETA.* are
generated by the end user at configure time after any dynamic
dependencies are known. (Peter John Acklam)
* Updated common test files from the Math::BigInt distribution. (Peter
John Acklam)
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.

* Add 00sig.t for testing SIGNATURE, and 01load.t for basic module loading and
giving diagnostics useful for bug tracking (Peter John Acklam).
* Rename pod.t to 02pod.t and pod_cov.t to 03podcov.t and use more generic
code (Peter John Acklam).
* Clean up whitespace (Peter John Acklam).
pkgsrc changes:
- bump required perl5 version to 5.12.2nb1 to get Math::BigInt>=1.90
Upstream changes:

* Fix tests with Math::BigInt >= 1.90 and depend on it.
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!
faster calculation in Crypt::DH.
Provides support for big integer in BigInt et al. calculations via means of
Math::Pari, an XS layer on top of the very fast PARI library.
