should always pick perl, but sometimes (pkg_add) don't due to the
design of the {,} syntax.
No effective change for the above reason.

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.

The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,

Fixes:
- message disappeared when ::Manager::moveMessages() had to move
messages to the folder it already was in.
rt.cpan.org#40198 [Florian]

croacking in studied header fields (M::M::Field::Full).

Changes:
- no questions asked about Mail::Box::Parser::C; it is not
really maintained as it should... but probably still works
in most cases.
Fixes:
- change in TAP::Harness shows missing TAP::Parser::Aggregator

because it produces a warning on 5.10
version 2.083: Tue Sep 2 09:41:19 CEST 2008
Changes:

it will get charset 'PERL', which means: Perl internal
representation. Also the decoded() body is of that. As part
of a message, the body with be translated into real utf-8.
This change will make Mail::Box slower, but correct! Check
your applications! Use $msg->decoded when you process the
content.
- removed $msg->decoded option 'keep', because decoded object
depends on temporary decoding parameters.
Fixes:
- use File::Temp, not POSIX::tmpnam, to work around Windows
bug. rt.cpan.org#35747 [Ron Murray]
- Mail::Message::contentType could produce "use of undefined"
error message [Patrick Heesom]

only supported, but most people will not install that.
Improvements:
- doc-patch, where "my Type @array" is not permitted
anymore [Mike Andrews]
- do not coerce parts via messages into parts.

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=...").

by a recent, now frequently appearing, spam message.
- various IMAP4 improvements by [David Golden]
- stop when message coersion is called but not possible.
- fixtest, to work with MIME::Entity changes.

empty. Reported by [Ricardo Signes]
