2.11 Mon Jul 2 03:30:03 PDT 2007

New Features

• Inheriting from yourself causes a warning [bleadperl 29090]

Bug Fixes

• Silenced warning when a class with no fields inherits from a class with fields. [bleadperl 22208]
• An intermediate class with no fields messes up private fields in the base class. [bleadperl 23266] [bleadperl 23267]
  • Loading a module via base.pm would mask a global $SIG{__DIE__} in that module. [bleadperl 31163]
