+Version 1.1.6 - 11 Aug 2003, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
+- perl_checker:
+ - allow $_o_XXX parameter name which is both unused and optional (same for $_b_XXX)
+ - shift is a ONE_SCALAR_PARA so that $box->pack_start(shift @l, 0, 0, 4) is parsed correctly
+ - in arrange_global_vars_declared(), don't keep anything in global_vars_declared, better
+ create shadow packages to contain them
+ - much better merging of multiple files defining functions in the same package.
+ This fixes the bad behaviour when using the cache (esp. do_pkgs, but it was even worse
+ with things in ugtk2.pm)
+ - adapt to perl-Gtk2 xs (which replace the perl-GTK2 inline version)
+
+Version 1.1.4 - 27 May 2003, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
+- many perl_checker enhancements:
+ - disallow return(...), prefering return ...
+ - enhance restricted_subscripted to correctly handle -e foo::bar()->{boo}
+ - handle use foo() and use foo ("x", "y")
+ - better warning for: print $a . 'foo'
+ - add a special case to handle "arch => 1" without going through word_alone()
+ - warn things like: if ($a = 1) { ... } or 0 or ...
+ - explicitly disallow <<=, >>= and **= (instead of having a syntax error)
+ - check prototype coherence: disallow ($a, @b, $c) or ($a, $o_b, $c)
+ - warn spurious space in ( 1, 2) which should be (1, 2)
+ - warn $o->method() which should be $o->method
+ - suggest using the functional map instead of the imperative foreach when possible
+ - add warning: you can replace "map { if_(..., $_) }" with "grep { ... }"
+ - suggest any instead of grep in scalar context
+ - suggest foreach instead of map in empty context
+ - fix "/^\d+\.\*$/" giving warning "you can remove \".*$\" at the end of your regexp"
+
+Version 1.1.3 - 16 May 2003, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
+- fix pot generation (have \" instead of \\\")
+

+
+Version 1.1.2 - 29 Apr 2003, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux

+- many perl_checker enhancements:
+ - allow 333 * `xxx` with no warning
+ - warn non-useful or non-readable escaped sequences in strings and regexps
+ (eg: /^\// should be m|^/|, /xxx\=xxx/ should be /xxx=xxx/ ...)
+ - warn things like: ($foo) ||= ...
+ - enhance non_scalar case for some operators using is_not_a_scalar
+ - handle "keys %pkg::" (twas broken because keys() is now a ONE_SCALAR_PARA)
+ - keys() is a ONE_SCALAR_PARA
+ - correctly (in Perl way) handle priority for some special unary functions (length, exists, ref)
+ - warn xxx == "ia64", xxx eq 2
+ - 0.2 is a NUM, not a REVISION (otherwise it gets into a Raw_string)
+ - better error message ("please remove the space before the function call"
+ instead of "can't handle this nicely")
