- Updating package for p5 module of UNIVERSAL::require from 0.11 to 0.13
- Setting license to gnu-gpl-v2
Upstream changes:
0.13 Mon Mar 30 17:50:10 BST 2009
Bug Fixes
* $module->require now always resets $@ which removes a trap of using $@
to indicate an error, rather than checking $module->require directly.

0.12 Mon Mar 30 10:53:51 BST 2009
Test Fixes
* bleadperl introduced a new warning deprecating "use UNIVERSAL"
(thank goodness) which interfered with t/require.t
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.8.8 -> 5.10.0.
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=...").
Changes since 0.10:
0.11 Sat Nov 11 18:13:20 CST 2006
* Sped up require() by about 400% for already loaded modules.

- Fix the test for the changed version error in 5.10.
UNIVERSAL::require - require() modules from a variable.
If you've ever had to do this...
eval "require $module";
to get around the bareword caveats on require(), this module is for
you. It creates a universal require() class method that will work with
every Perl module and its secure. So instead of doing some arcane
eval() work, you can do this:
$module->require;
It doesn't save you much typing, but it'll make alot more sense to
someone who's not a ninth level Perl acolyte.
