- Improved handling of HTML encoded surrogate pairs and illegally
encoded Unicode; http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7785.
Patch by John Gardiner Myers jgmyers@proofpoint.com.
- Avoid generating bad UTF8 strings when decoding entities
representing chars beyond #255 in 8-bit strings. Such bad
UTF8 sometimes made perl-5.8.5 and older segfault.
- Undocument v2 style subclassing in synopsis section.
- Internal cleanup: Make 'gcc -Wall' happier.
- Avoid modification of PVs during parsing of attrspec.
