Log Message:
Update 0.55 to 0.57
-------------------
0.57 2015-04-17 15:20 UTC
+ Chg : The new environment variable to enable thread tests on older
perls is PERL_FORCE_TEST_THREADS. Note that this variable
should only be turned on by authors.
+ Fix : Segfaults when the module is loaded by several threads (or
Windows emulated processes) ran in parallel.
+ Fix : Segfaults when the module is loaded in a thread, which spawns
itself a new thread, and that child thread outlives its parent.
+ Fix : Small memory leaks of structures required for thread safety.
+ Fix : Update the Windows ActivePerl + gcc 3.4 workaround for
ExtUtils::MakeMaker 7.04. Thanks Christian Walde for reporting
and feedback on this issue.
+ Tst : The global destruction test will now be exercised on any perl
that has DEBUGGING set.
+ Tst : Optional capturing tests in t/17-ctl.t that were only run when
Capture::Tiny was present were converted to an IPC::Open3
based helper and will now be run everywhere.

+ Fix : [RT #101410] : Install fails in blead
Even though the change that caused this error was reverted from
blead, lvalue uses of ERRSV have been removed from this module
so that there will be no breakage when this change is possibly
reintroduced in the following months.
Thanks Dave Rolsky for reporting.
+ Tst : $ENV{$Config{ldlibpthname}} is now preserved on all platforms,
which will address failures of t/17-ctl.t with unusual
compilers (like icc) that link all their compiled objects to
their own libraries.
+ Tst : The global destruction test is now only run on perl 5.13.4 and
higher, and only if either Perl::Destruct::Level is installed
or PERL_DESTRUCT_LEVEL is set and the perl is a debugging perl.
This will solve rare crashes of t/15-self.t on perl 5.13.3 and
older.
