Inline-0.34 has been uploaded to CPAN. This is a very minor release that
fixes the 0.33 installation bugs reported by a couple people. There is
no new functionality added, so feel free to stay at 0.33.

In other news...

Inline 0.40 is well under way. I wrote Inline::MakeMaker last night.
Simply using I::MM in the Makefile.PL of your Inline-based extension
module should do everything you need to make it into a CPAN worthy
distribution. 

Other things I want:

1) 'perl -MInline=makedist' to generate a CPAN distribution (using a
MANIFEST).
2) 'perl -MInline=makeppd' to generate a pre-compiled, binary
distribution.
3) 'perl -MInline=makeppd,nosource' to make a binary-only
(source-stripped) distribution.

Expect a trial version some time this week. I would really appreciate
people banging on this for me. Inline will be changed in a non-backwards
compatible way. But that doesn't mean it needs to lose any
functionality. I've always tried to make Inline flexible to account for
all the various ways people might want to use it. From one-liners to
production systems. In order to acheive world domination, it needs to be
broken one (hopefully) last time. I need everyone's help to make sure
that no functionality gets left behind.

I'll put the trial versions on my webserver but not on the CPAN.
Hopefully after 2-3 trials, 0.40 will hit the streets.

Thank you all in advance, Brian
