Automatic conversion of the NetBSD pkgsrc CVS module, use with care
Pkgsrc changes: o Adapt the patch to t/op/io.t to a change done upstream slightly after 1.7.0 was released. o Add a patch which fixes a problem exposed by one of the tests, related to library cloning, which caused dlclose() to be called twice with the same handle value, ref. Parrot ticket 1340. Upstream changes: New in 1.7.0 - Functionality + Parrot_capture_lex has been added to the PARROT_EXPORT API + PARROT_MAX_ARGS has been increased from 8 to 16 to allow for ops that take mo re than 8 args - Performance + The profiling runcore now caches metadata for improved performance - Maintenance and cleanup + Expanded the Parrot debugger documentation + Parrot debugger now uses the new Parrot STRING API + Continue to port rest of internals to use the STRING API - Deprecations + The JIT subsystem has been removed and is being written from the ground up.
