All-
I've just uploaded PDL-2.4.9_011 and it
should be appearing at a CPAN mirror near
you soon (usually within 3 days).
This is the first in a set of more frequent
releases as we work towards our coming
PDL-2.4.10 release on the new year. If you
use PDL, I welcome you to test these releases
on your platforms---we can't fix problems
unless we know about them and can reproduce
them.
NOTE: This release appears to have a failure
in t/proj_transform2.t due to a fix in the
FITS handling code that needs to be propagated
to the test values.
@Judd: it seems a fix would be to put the
"incorrect" values in the place of the "correct"
ones to compensate for the new FITS code. Is
that true?
Enjoy!

Release Notes for PDL 2.4.9_011 --------------------------
General Notes:
* Another quick CPAN developers release
- It is a snapshot of the current git development tree
and everything may not work correctly or have complete
documentation.
- These release notes may not be fully complete. Please
see Changes (from the git log) for full details.
- All tests may not pass, especially ones corresponding
to issues in Known_problems.
- Manual build/install is recommended although the
cpan shell may be used by specifying the distribution
path rather than just the module name, e.g.:
cpan> get CHM/PDL-2.4.9_011.tar.gz
cpan> make CHM/PDL-2.4.9_011.tar.gz
cpan> test CHM/PDL-2.4.9_011.tar.gz
cpan> look CHM/PDL-2.4.9_011.tar.gz
Highlights:
* SF.net bugs fixed:
- 3410905 t/pgplot.t hangs test harness for PDL
Now use the PGPLOT /NULL device if running
under Test::Harness.
- 3428356 PDL::Transform::map output FITS header is slightly wrong
- 3080505 PLplot segfaults on plshades call on OS X
- 3059083 Problems with FITS header handling
* The perl crash in t/pthreadBarf.t for win32 has been fixed.
The problem was that Perl's realloc was being used instead
of the system malloc/realloc.
* Fix build for PROJ4 submodules so that setting WITH_PROJ to
1 with force a build whether or not the configure type checks
can verify the build options. This allows the end user to
work around auto-detection issues when needed.
NOTE: Even with the override, the check are still done---just
ignored in the decision process.
* Various documentation and updates.
