Recently I thought that strings "\xA0" and "\x{A0}" will be interpreted
differently, namely last one will be interpreted as Unicode (U+00A0)
Quick check with
perl -MDevel::Peek -we "print Dump qq/\xa0/,Dump qq/\x{a0}/"
shows that "\xA0" and "\x{A0}" both interpreted as not-Unicode.
However, th
Changes to vmsish.h and vms.c:
1. Add new routine to translate VMS error status codes into UNIX errno
values.
2. Fix routines that callers expect not to modify the input strings to
actually not modify them.
3. Put the const qualifiers on all input pointers that are not modified
so that the

Hi Nicholas Clark
I agree that it is supposed to print the numerical equivalent 97.
I attempted to see if there is any bug in the encode module.
Surprisingly, I noticed that there are two .c files in
ext/Encode/def_t.c and ext/Encode/Byte/byte_t.c which are generated
using enc2xs. They are diff

-c is "check syntax" and not "compile".
And there are also -h and -v, but I wouldn't take serious writing something
like "perl can be used for checking syntax

Implied "is that phrase in the previous sentence supposed to be".
"Or are they" would be correct also

That shouldn't make any difference:

Attached is a patch for a couple of random warnings I've looked at but
haven't gotten to fixing. The fix in nostdio.h is complained about
by gcc if compiling with -Wundef. The change in perl.c is complained about
by bcc without -DDEBUGGING. It looks like bcc dislike code like "if(0){".
Enjoy!

But may be those two concepts should be considered synonyms in this context?
