(PR pkg/21672), updated by Adrian Portelli, and slightly modified by
me.
This package contains a selection of subroutines that people have
expressed would be nice to have in the perl core, but the usage would
not really be high enough to warrant the use of a keyword, and the size
so small such that being individual extensions would be wasteful.

3.09 changes (5/24/2001):
* Removed use of the user name in temp file path. This removed a problem
on Windows when the user name had a space in it.
* Made diff "edge detection" smarter by using the new smarter overlap code
for cases where diff decided to treat whitespace slightly different
on missing-EOL files when doing 3-way diffs.
* Added the "..." back to the Save options in the merge result window
when appropriate.

This release adds ALSA support and support for downsampling streams from
stereo to mono when streaming in MP3 to an icecast 2 server. There is a
bugfix for conflicting symbols _X and _Y on Solaris, and a bugfix for a
segfault caused when saving an Ogg Vorbis stream to a file.
