(avoiding interaction in configure stage).
*** WARNING ***
This release breaks compatibility with versions earlier than version 0.60 of
YAML::Syck and YAML.pm when serializing blessed references.
from COMPATIBILITY:
YAML.pm 0.60 breaks compatability with older version by changing the
tags that are output for serialized objects.
This was the old way:
--- !perl/Foo::Bar {}
--- !perl/@Baz []
--- !perl/$Quux ""
New way:
--- !!perl/hash:Foo::Bar {}
--- !!perl/array:Baz []
--- !!perl/scalar:Quux ""
* This change was made after discussions with the Python and Ruby
implementors to standardize on this form.
* YAML::Syck was updated at the same time as YAML.pm so that they
serialize objects the same way.
* YAML.pm roundtrips the new format and still parses the old (now
deprecated) format.
* The best strategy is to update to the latest version.
* There are potential problems if you use YAML for RPC and the server
and client versions don't match.

developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

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.
