- perl 5.23.8 breaks the hack we were using to implement double_return.
This patch from David Mitchell fixes it. See https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=112226

> Running with a debugging perl-5.23.8 will show assertion failures in the Want test suite. It's because PL_comppad/PL_curpad save/restore is now done by the context stack / cx_popsub() rather than as previously on the savestack / LEAVE.
> This stops the double_return() 'convert CXt_SUB to CXt_NULL' hack from working properly, as PL_comppad is no longer restored when transitioning from the inner to outer sub. The attached patch substitutes one evil hack for another: it keeps the CXt_SUB context stack entry, but sets its retop field to point to the return op again (rather than its caller) so that the return op gets called twice (with a bit of markstack hackery to ensure there are two marks for the two returns to pop).

- Restore compatibility with certain older perl versions (5.10 and 5.12)
It seems that �𦯷TTRS: lvalue�� doesn�脌 work with older perls, but that you can
forward-declare the method in Perl code with the :lvalue attribute with the same
effect.
This version of Want is still broken with perl 5.8, for reasons I haven�脌 investigated.
