M pod/perlmod.pod
M sv.c
Log Message:
-----------
Pass clone parameter to CLONE methods as a UV
Any CLONE method that needs to call sv_clone and friends needs to pass
this on as an argument.
On older releases such an argument would not be passed, so they would
need to take it as an optional argument to work in both cases. E.g.
void
CLONE(SV* classname, UV uv_params = 0)
CODE:
CLONE_PARAMS* params = INT2PTR(params);
That means this change can break XS modules not taking the extra
argument into account. Fortunately most modules have cargo-culted a
CLONE(...) from perlxs so they're safe from this change.
