bugfixes, include:
- Labltk: updated to Tcl/Tk 8.6.
Type system:
- use well-disciplined type information propagation to
disambiguate label and constructor names
* Propagate type information towards pattern-matching, even in the presence of
polymorphic variants (discarding only information about possibly-present
constructors). As a result, matching against absent constructors is no longer
allowed for exact and fixed polymorphic variant types.
* Reject multiple declarations of the same method or instance variable
in an object
- raise an error when multiple private keywords are used in type
declarations
- parsetree rewriter (-ppx flag)
- ocamldep now supports -absname
- On "unbound identifier" errors, use spell-checking to suggest names
present in the environment
- ocamlc has a new option -dsource to visualize the parsetree
- tools/eqparsetree compares two parsetree ignoring location
- ocamlopt now uses clang as assembler on OS X if available, which enables
CFI support for OS X.
- Added a new -short-paths option, which attempts to use the shortest
representation for type constructors inside types, taking open modules
into account. This can make types much more readable if your code
uses lots of functors.
- added flag -compat-32 to ocamlc, ensuring that the generated
bytecode executable can be loaded on 32-bit hosts.
- warning on open statements which shadow an existing
identifier (if it is actually used in the scope of the open); new
open! syntax to silence it locally
* warning 3 is extended to warn about other deprecated features:
- ISO-latin1 characters in identifiers
- uses of the (&) and (or) operators instead of (&&) and (||)
- Experimental OCAMLPARAM for ocamlc and ocamlopt
- incorrect ordinal number in error message
- add signature to Tstr_include
- expose a way to inspect the current call stack,
Printexc.get_callstack
- new flag Marshal.Compat_32 for the serialization functions
(Marshal.to_*), forcing the output to be readable on 32-bit hosts.
- infix application operators |> and @@ in Pervasives
- add O_CLOEXEC flag to Unix.openfile, so that the returned
file descriptor is created in close-on-exec mode
* more efficient implementation of caml_modify() and caml_initialize().
The new implementations are less lenient than the old ones: now,
the destination pointer of caml_modify() must point within the minor or
major heaps, and the destination pointer of caml_initialize() must
point within the major heap.
- Moved debugger/envaux.ml to typing/envaux.ml to publish env_of_only_summary
as part of compilerlibs, to be used on bin-annot files.
- The test suite can now be run without installing OCaml first.
package as lang/lua51.
I've adjusted the depends and switched the PKGNAMEs but these packages
are otherwise unchanged. This means that you can't install both at
once. There are preliminary patches for that (see tech-pkg) but they
aren't quite ready yet.
This also doesn't include agc's builtin.mk, although it should be
possible to drop it into the lua51 package with only very minor
modifications. I don't think the builtin packages will allow having
one builtin.mk for both lua51 and lua52, but I'd be happy to be shown
wrong about that.
Add infrastructure support for Lua module packages (including
multiversion support), application packages written in Lua, and a
redirecting bl3.mk file for packages that just link Lua in. This is
based on the Python infrastructure.
The new variable LUA_VERSION_DEFAULT picks which Lua package you get
by default; it is set to 52 so as to maintain the status quo.
Packages can set LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED and/or LUA_VERSIONS_INCOMPATIBLE.
I have found (I think) most or all the packages that don't work with
lua51 and will be marking those; I have not tracked down most of the
ones that don't work with lua52 yet as I was originally intending to
roll back to 5.1 as the default.
For FreeBSD:
* Fix careless mistake of patch to configure.
For MirBSD (and possibly OpenBSD):
* Don't pass empy string (before semicolon to sed(1).
* Correct suffix for libruby's shared library.
No PKGREVISION bump since this is simply fix for build problem.
0.9.24 into lang/asn1c.
The asn1c is a free, open source compiler of ASN.1 specifications into C
source code. It supports a range of ASN.1 syntaxes, including ISO/IEC/ITU
ASN.1 1988, '94, '97, 2002 and later amendments. The supported sets of
encoding rules are
* BER: ITU-T Rec. X.690 | ISO/IEC 8825-1 (2002) (BER/DER/CER).
* PER: X.691|8825-2 (2002) (PER).
* XER: X.693|8825-3 (2001) (BASIC-XER/CXER).
The compiler was written specifically to address security concerns while
providing streaming decoding capabilities.
Does not include all the changes in PR 45318, some of which need
further investigation.
pkgsrc changes:
- update MASTER_SITES and HOMEPAGE
- remove LP64 restriction (LP64 platforms are supported using -m32)
- add destdir support (provided by upstream) and lift BROKEN
- remove some pkglint
- mark MAKE_JOBS_SAFE=no
- add readline.bl3.mk
- patch-ag was applied upstream
- remove patch-ah and handle the issue involved a cleaner way
Caution: so far the LP64 build does not actually work yet, -m32
notwithstanding; it dies with
PreludeList.init: empty list
PreludeList.init: empty list
PreludeList.init: empty list
i386 works though.

Highlights for R16B01:
OTP-10279 == erts ==
Support for migration of memory carriers between memory
allocator instances has been introduced.
By default this feature is not enabled and do not effect the
characteristics of the system. When enabled it has the
following impact on the characteristics of the system:
-- Reduced memory footprint when the memory load is unevenly
distributed between scheduler specific allocator instances.
-- Depending on the default allocaton strategy used on a
specific allocator there might or might not be a slight
performance loss.
-- When enabled on the fix_alloc allocator, a different
strategy for management of fix blocks will be used.
-- The information returned from
erlang:system_info({allocator, A}), and
erlang:system_info({allocator_sizes, A}) will be slightly
different when this feature has been enabled. An mbcs_pool
tuple will be present giving information about abandoned
carriers, and in the fix_alloc case no fix_types tuple will
be present.
For more information, see the documentation of the +M<S>acul
command line argument.
OTP-11009 == ssl public_key crypto common_test dialyzer ssh stdlib snmp
inets ==
Integrate elliptic curve contribution from Andreas Schultz
In order to be able to support elliptic curve cipher suites
in SSL/TLS, additions to handle elliptic curve infrastructure
has been added to public_key and crypto.
This also has resulted in a rewrite of the crypto API to gain
consistency and remove unnecessary overhead. All OTP
applications using crypto has been updated to use the new
API.
Impact: Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) offers equivalent
security with smaller key sizes than other public key
algorithms. Smaller key sizes result in savings for power,
memory, bandwidth, and computational cost that make ECC
especially attractive for constrained environments.
OTP-11159 == erts ==
Lift static limitation (FD_SETSIZE) for file descriptors on
Mac OS X. (Thanks to Anthony Ramine)
pax -rw, the destination directory must exist. pax in NetBSD creates it if
not, pax in MirBSD complains. I read through all pkgsrc Makefiles that use
pax and added an entry to INSTALLATION_DIRS, or an INSTALL_DATA_DIR
invocation.
I did not test all the changes but they should be fairly safe. If you notice
any breakage because of this change, please contact me.
- Use USE_PHP_EXT_PATCHES in net/php-sockets.
- Make AI_V4MAPPED noop if platform dosen't have it.
It is poor assumption that AI_V4MAPPED is always defined and V4 mapped
address is always available.
Changelog:
10.5.4
3.7 newlispdoc cleanup ";; *" regex
New FFI ffi.h include directory in makefile_linux* when installing libffi
Fix for last list element optimization in push, pop and pop-assoc when
popping and inserting last element
Accessing a deleted context will never hang but give an error message
Some changes in nl-filesys.c for AIX and new makefile for AIX ILP32
On Windows: a fix for correctly closing logfiles initiated by newlisp -l or
newlisp -L and for closing files created by the HTTP PUT operation.
Two sample 't-test' when variances are different (independent samples) with
new syntax:
(t-test <list-vector-A> <list-vector-B> <float-probabilty>)
When <float-probabilty> is specified, an internal F-test for variance
equality in data A and B is performed. If the probablity of F is
smaller than <float-probabilty>, then Welch's variant of the t-test for
independent samples is performed. Using 1.0 <float-probabilty>, Welch
can be forced even when variances are not significantly different.
One sample 't-test' using new syntax pattern:
(t-test <list-vector-data> <float-value>)
Gives the two-tailed probability that observed mean is differs from <float-value>
Instead of sdev for second list-vector the standard error for the observed mean
is reported.
Some cleanup and changes in scripts (makefiles) for binary installers
Requested by Peter Bex.
4.8.0.5
- Security fixes
- CVE-2013-4385: read-string! no longer reads beyond its buffer when
length is #f.
- poll() is also used on cygwin by enabling the fix for CVE-2012-6122
- file-creation-mode now passes a valid value to umask when its argument
is omitted. (Also ensure it always returns the old umask value.)
- Fix a data corruption problem in list->queue.
- Core libraries
- read-string! behaves correctly in presence of EOF.
- Several subtle problems in the reader in the presence of EOF are fixed.
- Use poll() instead of select() on cygwin.
- Runtime
- Fix an issue on initial seed of the random number generator.
4.8.0.4
- Runtime
- Ensure correct type is used for sigsetjmp(3) buffer. This fixes,
for example, a bus error in 32-bit OS X builds (#1021).
- Core libraries
- Export file-type from the posix unit.
- Build system
- Use inexact comparison for flonum tests, as there is sometimes a
miniscule difference between trig functions computed by libc and
those precalculated by gcc.
go1.1.2 (released 2013/08/13) includes fixes to the gc compiler and cgo,
and the bufio, runtime, syscall, and time packages. See the change
history for details. If you use package syscall's Getrlimit and
Setrlimit functions under Linux on the ARM or 386 architectures, please
note change 55ac276af5a7 that fixes issue 5949.
This is a leaf package, so it should be ok during the freeze.
Rakudo Perl 6, or simply Rakudo, is a compiler for the Perl 6 programming
language. It runs on the Parrot virtual machine.
The Rakudo Star distribution (fondly called Rakudo *) is the Rakudo
compiler plus a selection of useful Perl 6 modules, the most recent
incarnation of the "Using Perl 6" book, and other software that can
be used with the Rakudo compiler to enhance its utility. Rakudo Star
is meant for early adopters who wish to explore what's possible with
Rakudo Perl 6 and provide feedback on what works, what doesn't, and
what else they would like to see included in the distribution.
This is "Not Quite Perl" -- a lightweight Perl 6-like environment for
virtual machines. The key feature of NQP is that it's designed to be a
very small environment (as compared with, say, perl6 or Rakudo) and
is focused on being a high-level way to create compilers and libraries
for virtual machines (such as the Parrot Virtual Machine [1] and the JVM).
Unlike a full-fledged implementation of Perl 6, NQP strives to have as
small a runtime footprint as it can, while still providing a Perl 6 object
model and regular expression engine for the virtual machine.

handler). Make precompiled headers work on NetBSD hosts (by choosing a
hopefully stable virtual address for precompiled header symbol tables).
Both reported upstream.
* B has been upgraded from 1.42 to 1.42_01, fixing bugs related to lexical subroutines.
* Digest::SHA has been upgraded from 5.84 to 5.84_01, fixing a crashing bug.
* Module::CoreList has been upgraded from 2.89 to 2.96.
* Starting in v5.18.0, a construct like /[#](?{})/x would have its # incorrectly interpreted as a comment. The code block would be skipped, unparsed. This has been corrected.
* A number of memory leaks related to the new, experimental regexp bracketed character class feature have been plugged.
* The OP allocation code now returns correctly aligned memory in all cases for struct pmop. Previously it could return memory only aligned to a 4-byte boundary, which is not correct for an ithreads build with 64 bit IVs on some 32 bit platforms. Notably, this caused the build to fail completely on sparc GNU/Linux.
* The debugger's man command been fixed. It was broken in the v5.18.0 release. The man command is aliased to the names doc and perldoc - all now work again.
* @_ is now correctly visible in the debugger, fixing a regression introduced in v5.18.0's debugger.
* Fixed a small number of regexp constructions that could either fail to match or crash perl when the string being matched against was allocated above the 2GB line on 32-bit systems.
* Perl v5.16 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby calls to XSUBs that were not visible at compile time were treated as lvalues and could be assigned to, even when the subroutine was not an lvalue sub. This has been fixed.
* Perl v5.18 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby dual-vars (i.e. variables with both string and numeric values, such as $! ) where the truthness of the variable was determined by the numeric value rather than the string value.
* Perl v5.18 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby interpolating mixed up- and down-graded UTF-8 strings in a regex could result in malformed UTF-8 in the pattern: specifically if a downgraded character in the range \x80..\xff followed a UTF-8 string
* Lexical constants (my sub a() { 42 }) no longer crash when inlined.
* Parameter prototypes attached to lexical subroutines are now respected when compiling sub calls without parentheses. Previously, the prototypes were honoured only for calls with parentheses.
* Syntax errors in lexical subroutines in combination with calls to the same subroutines no longer cause crashes at compile time.
* The dtrace sub-entry probe now works with lexical subs, instead of crashing
* Undefining an inlinable lexical subroutine (my sub foo() { 42 } undef &foo) would result in a crash if warnings were turned on.
* Deep recursion warnings no longer crash lexical subroutines.
Note that contrary to last month's message, the increased type
opacity in the compiler has not been fixed in this release cycle.
changes in sbcl-1.1.11 relative to sbcl-1.1.10:
* enhancement: support building the manual under texinfo version 5.
(lp#1189146)
* enhancement: Windows builds no longer display the "Kitten of Death" message.
A warning is instead appended to the regular banner, and may be muted with
--noinform. (lp#728247)
* enhancement: support building under new linker handling of syscalls under
NetBSD. (thanks to Robert Swindells)
* bug fix: undefined function errors are now properly reported on PPC and MIPS.
(regression since 1.1.9)
* bug fix: (funcall (function X junk)) didn't causes an error when X had a
compiler macro. (thanks to Douglas Katzman).
* bug fix: signal a warning when defining a setf-function when a
setf-expander is already present. (thanks to Douglas Katzman).
* bug fix: improved threading on PPC.
* bug fix: ROOM works again on Windows. (lp#1206456)
* bug fix: Streams were flushed even when there was one byte still left in
the buffer. (lp#910213)
* bug fix: OPEN handles correctly when :if-exists and :if-does-not-exist are
either NIL or :ERROR. (reported by Jan Moringen)
As well as the release notes, appended below, it is worth noting
that some internal changes related to the optimization of type
tests for bounded positive integers might cause performance
regressions in code that dispatches based on the type of objects,
as in for example
(typecase x
((unsigned-byte 24) ...[1])
(t ...))
where in the region of code marked ...[1] the compiler could be expected
to infer that x was of type (unsigned-byte 24), but currently fails to
do so. This can be worked around by inserting an explicit declaration,
and the developers hope to address this in the next release cycle.
changes in sbcl-1.1.10 relative to sbcl-1.1.9:
* enhancement: ASDF has been updated to 3.0.2.
* optimization: stack frames are packed more efficiently on x86oids, which
ought to reduce the frequency of Methuselahn conservative references (it
certainly helps with gc.impure.lisp / BUG-936304 on x86).
* optimization: on x86 and x86-64, integer negation forms like (- x) are now
recognized in modular arithmetic contexts, and compile to native negate,
rather than going through bignums only to keep the low bits.
* bug fix: Compiling potential modularic arithmetic forms does not cause type
errors when some integer types lack lower or upper bounds. (lp#1199127)
* bug fix: Non-trivial modular arithmetic forms are always cut to the right
bitwidth before being used in a non-modular context. (lp#1199428)
* bug fix: Multiple catch/unwind blocks in a single function are now
allocated in the right stack order on win32. (lp#1072739)
changes in sbcl-1.1.9 relative to sbcl-1.1.8:
* new feature: the contrib SB-GMP links with libgmp at runtime to speed
up arithmetic on bignums and ratios. (contributed by Stephan Frank)
* enhancement: disassemble now annotates some previously missing static
functions, like LENGTH.
* enhancement: clean.sh now also cleans doc/internals.
* enhancement: SB-EXT:PRINT-SYMBOL-WITH-PREFIX can be used within ~// to
print a symbol with a package prefix.
* enhancement: The debugger and backtracing are more robust against buggy
PRINT-OBJECT methods.
* optimization: calls to static functions on x86-64 use less instructions.
* optimization: compute encode-universal-time at compile time when possible.
* optimization: when referencing internal functions as #'x, don't go through
an indirect fdefn structure.
* optimization: SLEEP doesn't cons on non-immediate floats and on ratios.
* optimization: (mod fixnum) type-checks are performed using one unsigned
comparison, instead of two.
* optimization: enable more modular arithmetic transforms in the presence of
conditionals.
* optimization: bitwise OR forms can now trigger modular arithmetic as well,
when the result is known to be negative.
* optimization: recognize more cases of useless LOGAND/LOGIOR with constants.
* optimization: comparisons between rationals and constant floats or between
integers and constant ratios are now converted to rationals/integers at
compile time.
* optimization: Smaller and faster DOUBLE-FLOAT-LOW-BITS on x86-64.
* bug fix: problems with NCONC type derivation (reported by Jerry James).
* bug fix: EXPT type derivation no longer constructs bogus floating-point
types. (reported by Vsevolod Dyomkin)
* bug fix: sb-bsd-sockets has correct declaration of the canonname field of
addrinfo. (lp#1187041, patch by Jerry James)
* bug fix: uninitialized type-error conditions can now be printed.
(lp#1184586)
* bug fix: tests for sb-bsd-sockets no longer use a predefined port for
listening, allowing several tests to run in parallel.
* bug fix: during disassembly to *COMPILER-TRACE-OUTPUT* instruction
prefixes as used on x86 and x86-64 no longer sometimes print incorrectly.
(lp#1085729)
* bug fix: Specialised SIMD-PACK types can be negated.
* bug fix: Modular arithmetic is more robust. (incidentally fixes another bug
reported by Eric Marsden)
* bug fix: FP return values from foreign calls are always rounded to single
or double float precision on x87.
* bug fix: Known-safe vector access on x86oids should not fail spuriously
when the index is of the form (+ x constant-positive-integer).
* bug fix: Remove GPL-licensed files from source distribution. (lp#1185668)
* bug fix: backtrace printer no longer tries to create very large lists when
the arg-count register is clobberred by other code. (lp#1192929)
* bug fix: x86 should never signal an FP exception while boxing an FP value,
a situation that lands us into ldb.
Racket 5.3.6
This is a bug-fix release. It eliminates errors from v5.3.5 that
people have found over the summer.
Racket 5.3.5
This is a special-purpose release to match the arrival of "Realm of
Racket" in bookstores. Racket v.5.3.5 adds a single `realm'
collection to the v5.3.4 release. The new collection contains the
source code that readers of Realm may wish to use for experiments.
Racket 5.3.4
* Extflonums (80-bit floating-point numbers) are supported on some
x86/x86_64 platforms -- including Windows, and including platforms
where Racket is compiled to use SSE instructions for flonum
arithmetic. Thanks to Michael Filonenko.
* OS X: DrRacket and all of the other apps are now signed with an
official key.
* Tally Maze: a new game based an enumeration of 2d mazes.
* The Optimization Coach, a DrRacket plugin, has been moved from the
Racket distribution to the Racket package repository. Install it
with: raco pkg install optimization-coach
* Redex: `define-union-language' now merges productions when
languages define the same nonterminals. Thanks to William Bowman.
* The `srfi/19' library is now compatible with the date structure
type exported by `racket/base'.
22 Aug 2013, PHP 5.4.19
- Core:
. Fixed bug #64503 (Compilation fails with error: conflicting types for
'zendparse'). (Laruence)
- Openssl:
. Fixed UMR in fix for CVE-2013-4248.
Changes from 6.07 are:
* Updated for ocaml version 4.01.0
* Added 'MLast.loc_of_with_constr'.
* Fixed bug toplevel with revised syntax; "= 'a" was missing
in output in that example:
# module type A = sig module type S = 'a; end;
module type A = sig module type S; end
* Now accept lowercase ident for module types, like ocaml does.
Accepted also in revised syntax.
* (experimental) Now, in revised syntax, a "." followed by
a newline is interpreted as a ";", allowing to end phrases with ".".
Drawback: will syntax error when writing a record/module access in two
lines ending the first one with "." like:
foo.
bar
* Accept now "match with | | ... end" in revised syntax, with
a required "|" in the first case, as alternative syntax for match.
* Added function 'Pcaml.value greek_ascii_equiv' giving
an ascii equivalent to a greek (utf8) letter representing a type
parameter. E.g. 'a' for 'α', 'b' for 'β', and so on.
* Fixed bug no locations built in some cases of constructors.
* Fixed bug: in toplevel, the highlighting of errors did not work.
* Added option '-dquot' to specify the default quotation name.
and the ability to use "#option" directive with two parameters. Therefore,
we can use either (e.g.):
-dquot "expr"
in the command line of camlp5 or
#option "-dquot" "expr"
inside a file.
* Now 'make' displays a message how to compile, instead
of doing 'make out'. Old behaviour of 'make' must be now 'make out'.
* Now accept identifiers starting with a greek letter as variable names.
* Fixed bug: DEFINE FOO=32 while using pa_macro.cmo did not work
due to a bad order in grammar insertion.
* Fixed bug: parsing greek letters as type variable in
constructor declaration did not work when building Camlp5.
* building some modules (lzma) on Darwin (use PREFIX, instead of /usr/local, to look for libraries)
* building decimal module on certain enviroments (use relative path to look for includes, as absolute path might get rejected by a wrapper)
This is new stable release of PHP. Please refer UPGRADING file for
changes and updating.
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. It is modular, with
some object-oriented features. Much of its syntax is borrowed from
C, Java and Perl with a couple of unique PHP-specific features
thrown in. The language is designed to allow web developers to
write dynamically generated pages quickly.
This package provices PHP version 5.5.x.
