Log Message:
Changes 5.18.1:
* B has been upgraded from 1.42 to 1.42_01, fixing bugs related to lexical 
subroutines.
* Digest::SHA has been upgraded from 5.84 to 5.84_01, fixing a crashing bug.
* Module::CoreList has been upgraded from 2.89 to 2.96.
* Starting in v5.18.0, a construct like /[#](?{})/x would have its # 
incorrectly interpreted as a comment. The code block would be skipped, 
unparsed. This has been corrected.
* A number of memory leaks related to the new, experimental regexp bracketed 
character class feature have been plugged.
* The OP allocation code now returns correctly aligned memory in all cases for 
struct pmop. Previously it could return memory only aligned to a 4-byte 
boundary, which is not correct for an ithreads build with 64 bit IVs on some 32 
bit platforms. Notably, this caused the build to fail completely on sparc 
GNU/Linux.
* The debugger's man command been fixed. It was broken in the v5.18.0 release. 
The man command is aliased to the names doc and perldoc - all now work again.
* @_ is now correctly visible in the debugger, fixing a regression introduced 
in v5.18.0's debugger.
* Fixed a small number of regexp constructions that could either fail to match 
or crash perl when the string being matched against was allocated above the 2GB 
line on 32-bit systems.
* Perl v5.16 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby calls to XSUBs that were 
not visible at compile time were treated as lvalues and could be assigned to, 
even when the subroutine was not an lvalue sub. This has been fixed.
* Perl v5.18 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby dual-vars (i.e. variables 
with both string and numeric values, such as $! ) where the truthness of the 
variable was determined by the numeric value rather than the string value.
* Perl v5.18 inadvertently introduced a bug whereby interpolating mixed up- and 
down-graded UTF-8 strings in a regex could result in malformed UTF-8 in the 
pattern: specifically if a downgraded character in the range \x80..\xff 
followed a UTF-8 string
* Lexical constants (my sub a() { 42 }) no longer crash when inlined.
* Parameter prototypes attached to lexical subroutines are now respected when 
compiling sub calls without parentheses. Previously, the prototypes were 
honoured only for calls with parentheses.
* Syntax errors in lexical subroutines in combination with calls to the same 
subroutines no longer cause crashes at compile time.
* The dtrace sub-entry probe now works with lexical subs, instead of crashing
* Undefining an inlinable lexical subroutine (my sub foo() { 42 } undef &foo) 
would result in a crash if warnings were turned on.
* Deep recursion warnings no longer crash lexical subroutines.
