-There is a special inline function that's used when converting a single

-this commit.
+XXX New core language features go here.  Summarize user-visible core language

-Turkic languages have different casing rules than other languages for
-the characters C<"i"> and C<"I">.  The uppercase of C<"i"> is LATIN
-CAPITAL LETTER I WITH DOT ABOVE (U+0130); and the lowercase of C<"I"> is LATIN
-SMALL LETTER DOTLESS I (U+0131).  Unicode furnishes alternate casing
-rules for use with Turkic languages.  Previously, Perl ignored these,
-but now, it uses them when it detects that it is operating under a
-Turkic UTF-8 locale.

+Note that these are (with rare exceptions) fine modules that you are encouraged

-A few error messages have minor wording changes.  This is essentially

-=item 2
+XXX Important bug fixes in the core language are summarized here.  Bug fixes in

-A user-defined property is implemented as a perl subroutine with certain
-highly constrained naming conventions.  It was documented previously
-that the sub would be in the current package if the package was
-unspecified.  This turned out not to be true in all cases, but now it
-is.
+[ List each fix as an =item entry ]
 
-=item 3
+=over 4
 
-All recursive calls are treated as infinite recursion.  Previously they
-would cause the interpreter to panic.  Now, they cause the regex pattern
-to fail to compile.
+=item *
 
-=item 4
+XXX
 
-Similarly, any other error likely would lead to a panic; now to just the
-pattern failing to compile.
+=back
 
-=item 5
+=head1 Known Problems
 
-The old mechanism did not detect illegal ranges in the definition of the
-property.  Now, the range max must not be smaller than the range min.
-Otherwise, the pattern fails to compile.
+XXX Descriptions of platform agnostic bugs we know we can't fix go here.  Any
+tests that had to be C<TODO>ed for the release would be noted here.  Unfixed
+platform specific bugs also go here.
 
-=item 6
+[ List each fix as an =item entry ]
 
-The intention was to have each sub called only once during the lifetime
-of the program, so that a property's definition is immutable.  This was
-relaxed so that it could be called once for all /i compilations, and
-potentially a second time for non-/i (the sub is passed a parameter
-indicating which).  However, in practice there were instances when this
-was broken, and multiple calls were possible.  Those have been fixed.
-Now (besides the /i,non-/i cases) the only way a sub can be called
-multiple times is if some component of it has not been defined yet.  For
-example, suppose we have sub IsA() whose definition is known at compile
-time, and it in turn calls isB() whose definition is not yet known.
-isA() will be called each time a pattern it appears in is compiled.  If
-isA() also calls isC() and that definition is known, isC() will be
-called just once.
+=over 4
 
-=item 7

-There were some races and very long hangs should one thread be compiling
-the same property as another simultaneously.  These have now been fixed.
