Good morning!

POE 0.1109 is at <http://poe.perl.org/>.  This one gunzips ok;
I checked it first. :)

Aside from some problems with SIGCHLD handling, the 0.11xx series
looks pretty stable.  I'm going to try wrapping this up as 0.12
Real Soon Now; if anyone notices problems, now's the time to say
something.

0.1109 2000.10.30
-----------------

Revised large chunks of POE::Preprocessor.  Added conditional code
inclusion on the assumption that not performing macro substitution and
compiling code we don't use will be faster.  This could well be false.

Added DEBUG_INVOKE and DEBUG_DEFINE to POE::Preprocessor, mainly so
the defining and invoking output doesn't clutter up DEBUG'S.

Revised POE::Kernel to use conditional code inclusion instead of
optimized-away optrees.

Revised t/05_macros.t to test conditional code inclusion.

Revised t/01_sessions.t to time out in coverage tests.  Previously,
the tracing library would cause some subtle hang.

Revised the coverage testing tools to cope with conditional code
inclusion.  Conditional code inclusion inside macros changes line
numbers no matter what I do, so the coverage report has to cope.

POE::Preprocessor didn't allow consts which weren't all-caps; now it
does.  Also permit consts which aren't all letters.  This allows a
crude sort of operator overloading.

Lifted most of Ilya Zakharevich's nifty Text::Trie to rewrite the
regexp optimizer in POE::Preprocessor.

Added POE::NFA, the nondeterministic finite automaton flavor of
POE::Session.

Tweaked test t/00_coverage.t to load each module in a separate
package.  POE::NFA and POE::Session both export constants which
overlap.

Tweaked POE.pm to load Session by default.  If NFA is specified, it
overrides Session.  This should prevent accidentally loading Session
and NFA at once.
