  • Fixed a problem with signatures that occurred if 'distsign' was
    called before 'distdir' - the signature would be generated twice.

  • Added a 'create_readme' parameter to new(), which will use
    Pod::Text to generate a README from the main (dist_version_from)
    module file during the 'distdir' action.

  • We now refuse to run the 'Build' script if it was created using a
    different version of Module::Build. This has caused a couple of
    nasty bugs in the past, I don't want to know what it would cause in
    the future.

  • Documentation for do_system() has been added. [Dave Rolsky]

  • run_perl_script() is now available as a class method, though it
    will need to (re-)find the perl interpreter in this case.

  • Added a new_from_context() method that authors of automated tools
    like CPANPLUS and CPAN can use instead of running all tasks as
    sub-processes. We also use it in the regression tests for
    Module::Build itself. ** Note that this method is currently
    undocumented because its name may change before version 0.21. **
