    utf8.h: Clean up START_MARK definition and use
    
    The previous definition broke good encapsulation rules.  UTF_START_MARK
    should return something that fits in a byte; it shouldn't be the caller
    that does this.  So the mask is moved into the definition.  This means
    it can apply only to the portion that creates something larger than a
    byte.  Further, the EBCDIC version can be simplified, since 7 is the
    largest possible number of bytes in an EBCDIC UTF8 character.

    utf8.h: Simplify UTF8_EIGHT_BIT_foo on EBCDIC
    
    These macros were previously defined in terms of UTF8_TWO_BYTE_HI and
    UTF8_TWO_BYTE_LO.  But the EIGHT_BIT versions can use the less general
    and simpler NATIVE_TO_LATN1 instead of NATIVE_TO_UNI because the input
    domain is restricted in the EIGHT_BIT.  Note that on ASCII platforms,
    these both expand to the same thing, so the difference matters only on
    EBCDIC.

    I had thought that a continuation introduced a space.  But no,

    makedepend.SH: Remove some unnecessary white space
    
    Multi-line preprocessor directives are now joined into single lines.
    This can create lines too long for the preprocessor to handle.  This
    commit removes blanks adjoining comments that get deleted.  This makes
    things somewhat less likely to exceed the limit.
    
    This commit also fixes several [] which were meant to each match a tab
    or a blank, but editors converted the tabs to blanks

    Disable gcc-style function attributes on z/OS.
    
    John Goodyear <[email protected]> reports that the z/OS C compiler
    supports the attribute keyword, but not exactly the same as gcc.
    Instead of a "warning", the compiler emits an "INFORMATIONAL" message
    that Configure fails to detect.  Until Configure is fixed, just disable
    the attributes altogether.

    Change os390 custom cppstdin script to use fgrep.
    
    Grep appears to be limited to 2048 characters, and truncates

    Add macro OFFUNISKIP
    
    This means use official Unicode code point numbering, not native.  Doing
    this converts the existing UNISKIP calls in the code to refer to native
    code points, which is what they meant anyway.  The terminology is
    somewhat ambiguous, but I don't think will cause real confusion.
    NATIVESKIP is also introduced for situations where it is important to be
    precise.

    utf8.c: Deprecate two functions
    
    This is to force any code that has been using these functions to change.
    Since the Unicode tables are now stored in native order, these functions
    should only rarely be needed.
    
    However, the functionality of these is needed, and in actuality, on
    ASCII platforms, the native functions are #defined to these.  So what
    this commit does is rename the functions to something else, and create
    wrappers with the old names, so that anyone using them will get the
    deprecation.

    t/test.pl: Allow native/latin1 string conversions to work on utf8.
    
    These functions no longer have the hard-coded definitions in them,
    but now end up resolving to internal functions, so that new encodings
    could be added and these would automatically understand them.
    
    Instead of using tr///, these now go character by character and
    converting to/from ord, which is slower, but allows them to operate on
    utf8 strings.
    
    Peephole optimization should make these essentially no-ops on ascii
    platforms.

    t/test.pl: Simplify ord to/from native fcns
    
    This commit changes these functions from converting to/from a string to
    calling utf8:: functions which operate on ordinals instead.

    EBCDIC has the unicode bug too
    
    We have not had a working modern Perl on EBCDIC for some years.  When I
    started out, comments and code led me to conclude erroneously that
    natively it supported semantics for all 256 characters 0-255.  It turns
    out that I was wrong; it natively (at least on some platforms) has the
    same rules (essentially none) for the characters which don't correspond
    to ASCII onees, as the rules for these on ASCII platforms.
    
    This commit forces those rules on EBCDIC platforms (even should there be
    one that natively uses all 256).  To get all 256, the same things like
    'use feature "unicode_strings"' must now be done.

    handy.h: Solve a failure to compile problem under EBCDIC
    
    handy.h is included in files that don't include perl.h, and hence not
    utf8.h.  We can't rely therefore on the ASCII/EBCDIC conversion
    macros being available to us.  The best way to cope is to use the native
    ctype functions.  Most, but not all, of the macros in this commit
    currently resolve to use those native ones, but a future commit will
    change that.

    handy.h: Combine macros that are same in ASCII, EBCDIC
    
    These 4 macros can have the same RHS for their ASCII and EBCDIC
    versions, so no need to duplicate their definitions
    
    This also enables the EBCDIC versions to not have undefined expansions

    Deprecate NATIVE_TO_NEED and ASCII_TO_NEED
    
    These macros are no longer called in the Perl core.  This commit turns
    them into functions so that they can use gcc's deprecation facility.
    
    I believe these were defective right from the beginning, and I have
    struggled to understand what's going on.  From the name, it appears
    NATIVE_TO_NEED taks a native byte and turns it into UTF-8 if the
    appropriate parameter indicates that.  But that is impossible to do
    correctly from that API, as for variant characters, it needs to return
    two bytes.  It could only work correctly if ch is an I8 byte, which
    isn't native, and hence the name would be wrong.
    
    Similar arguments for ASCII_TO_NEED.
    
    The function S_append_utf8_from_native_byte(const U8 byte, U8** dest)
    does what I think NATIVE_TO_NEED intended.

    Remove remaining calls of NATIVE_TO_NEED
    
    These calls are just copying the input to the output byte by byte.

    toke.c: Remove some NATIVE_TO_NEED calls
    
    I believe NATIVE_TO_NEED is defective, and will remove it in a future
    commit.  But, just in case I'm wrong, I'm doing it in small steps so
    bisects will show the culprit.  This removes the calls to it where the
    parameter is clearly invariant under UTF-8 and UTF-EBCDIC, and so the
    result can't be other than just the parameter.

    toke.c: in [A-Za-z] use macros that exclude non-ASCII alphas
    
    This code is attempting to deal with the problem of holes in the ranges

    WITH GRAVE, etc, which shouldn't have the special processing to deal

    Use real illegal UTF-8 byte
    
    The code here was wrong in assuming that \xFF is not legal in UTF-8
    encoded strings.  It currently doesn't work due to a bug, but that may
    eventually be fixed: [perl #116867].  The comments are also wrong that
    all bytes are legal in UTF-EBCDIC.
    
    It turns out that in well-formed UTF-8, the bytes C0 and C1 never appear
    (C2, C3, and C4 as well in UTF-EBCDIC), as they would be the start byte
    of an illegal overlong sequence.
    
    This creates a #define for an illegal byte using one of the real illegal
    ones, and changes the code to use that.
    
    No test is included due to #116867.

    toke.c: Remove remapping for EBCDIC for octal
    
    The code prior to this commit converted something like \04 into its
    EBCDIC equivalent only in double-quoted strings.  This was not done in
    patterns, and so gave inconsistent results.  The correct thing to do
    should be to do the native thing, what someone who works on a platform
    would think \04 do.  Platform independent characters are available
    through \N{}, either by name or by U+.
    
    The comment changed by this was wrong, as in some cases it was native,
    and in some cases Unicode.

    mktables: Generate native code-point tables
    
    The output tables for mktables are now in the platform's native
    character set.  This means there is no change for ASCII platforms, but
    is a change for EBCDIC ones.
    
    Since we currently don't have any EBCDIC test platforms, I tested this
    by faking it out to generate EBCDIC data, and then eye-balled the
    results.
    
    Code that didn't realize there was a potential difference between EBCDIC
    and non-EBCDIC platforms will now start to work; code that tried to do
    the right thing under these circumstances will no longer work.  Fixing
    that comes in later commits.

    Don't use EBCDIC macro for a C language escape
    
    C recognizes '\a' (for BEL); just use that instead of a look-up.
    
    regen/unicode_constants.pl could be used to generate the character for
    the ESC (set in surrounding code), but I didn't do that because of
    potential bootstrapping problems when porting to an EBCDIC platform

    Use byte domain EBCDIC/LATIN1 macro where appropriate
    
    The macros like NATIVE_TO_UNI will work on EBCDIC, but operate on the
    whole Unicode range.  In the locations affected by this commit, it is
    known that the domain is limited to a single byte, so the simpler ones
    whose names contain LATIN1 may be used.
    
    On ASCII platforms, all the macros are null, so there is no effective
    change.
