module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

+ Added compiler directives for C++.
+ Removed "Carp::Clan" from the distribution (available separately).

which led to a given date being a holiday.
+ Fixed the Polish entries in "Date::Calc".
+ Added a few commemorative days to the Norwegian calendar profile.

+ Little additions to and corrections of the documentation (Date::Calc).
+ Added Polish (Date::Calc) and a calendar profile for Poland.
+ Added Hungarian (Date::Calc).
+ Added some more commemorative days to the profile of Brazil.
More interesting changes since 4.3:
Module "Date::Calc":
+ Added the following new functions:
* check_time()
* Delta_YMD()
* Delta_YMDHMS()
* Add_Delta_YM()
* Add_Delta_YMDHMS()
* Normalize_DHMS()
* This_Year()
* Gmtime()
* Localtime()
* Mktime()
* Timezone()
* Date_to_Time()
* Time_to_Date()
* Fixed_Window()
* Moving_Window()
* ISO_LC()
* ISO_UC()
+ Added support for Norwegian.
+ Added support for Swedish.
+ Added support for Danish.
+ Added support for Finnish.
+ Changed the month names of some languages to lower case.
+ Changed the french "long" date format to a more popular form.
+ Fixed the broken parsing of special ISO-Latin-1 characters
in Date::Calc (replaced <ctype.h> with better solution).
- Locales wouldn't help here, because "Decode_Language()" must
work with any locale setting. Moreover, setting a language in
Date::Calc would also require to set the proper corresponding
locale in the current environment, which may not be available
on the current system. The new solution works independently
of any locale and with ALL languages (in ISO-Latin-1).
+ Changed the function "Add_Delta_YMD()" to have a more intuitive,
consistent and reversible behaviour. This might break existing
code, though. (To get the old behaviour, use the new function
"Add_Delta_YM()" plus "Add_Delta_Days()" thereafter instead.)
+ Added an optional boolean parameter "orthodox" to "Calendar()"
for calendars starting with Sunday instead of Monday.
+ Changed the behaviour of the "Decode_Date_*()" set of functions:
if the current year is available on the system, then a "moving
window" strategy is applied to year numbers < 100; otherwise
it defaults to the previous behaviour (see version 4.3 below).
+ Changed the "Week_of_Year()" function: In scalar context, it
now returns just the week number. BEWARE, this is a DANGEROUS
feature - see the manual page for why this is so!
Module "Date::Calc::Object":
+ Added the module Date::Calc::Object, an object-oriented add-on
to Date::Calc with overloaded operators.
Modules "Date::Calendar[::(Year|Profiles)]":
+ Added the modules Date::Calendar, Date::Calendar::Year and
Date::Calendar::Profiles, for calculations which need to
take holidays into account (and for generating calendars).
The automatic truncation in gensolpkg doesn't work for packages which
have the same package name for the first 5-6 chars.
e.g. amanda-server and amanda-client would be named amanda and amanda.
Now, we add a SVR4_PKGNAME and use amacl for amanda-client and amase for
amanda-server.
All svr4 packages also have a vendor tag, so we have to reserve some chars
for this tag, which is normaly 3 or 4 chars. Thats why we can only use 6
or 5 chars for SVR4_PKGNAME. I used 5 for all the packages, to give the
vendor tag enough room.
All p5-* packages and a few other packages have now a SVR4_PKGNAME.
ones to do, and each compiled and installed/de-installed apparently
correctly.
As a side effect of the dynamic PLIST, we no longer need to have separate
-static and -shared PLISTs. It's now easier than ever to make a perl5
package for NetBSD :)
