Merge changes from CPerl-5.0. (toplevel): Require man. (condition-case): Don't autoload tmm-prompt (it's in loaddefs.el). (cperl-electric-backspace-untabify): New var. (cperl-electric-backspace): Use it. (cperl-vc-header-alist): Extract numeric version from the Id. (cperl-build-manpage): New fun. (cperl-menu): Use it. Add toggle-autohelp. (cperl-mode) <defun-prompt_regexp>: Understand prototypes. (cperl-electric-brace): Use `cperl-after-block-p' for detection. (cperl-electric-keyword): Make $if (etc: "$@%&*") non-electric. '(' after keyword would insert a doubled paren. (cperl-calculate-indent): Update syntaxification before checks. Fix wrong indent of blocks starting with POD. (cperl-find-pods-heres): If no end of HERE-doc found, mark to the end of buffer. This enables recognition of end of HERE-doc "as one types". Require "\n" after trailing tag of HERE-doc. \( made non-quoting outside of string/comment (gdj-contributed). Likewise for \$. Remove `here-doc-group' text property at start (makes this property reliable). Text property `first-format-line' ==> t. Do not recognize $opt_s and $opt::s as s///. (cperl-after-block-p): Optional arg pre-block to check for a pre-block Recognize `continue' blocks too. (cperl-after-expr-p): Update syntaxification before checks. Work after here-docs, formats, and PODs too (affects many electric constructs). (cperl-fix-line-spacing): Allow "_" in $vars of foreach etc. (cperl-perldoc): Use case-sensitive search.

If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
it needs to have.

There are three ways to read the Bugs section.

(1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
see the file etc/ORDERS.  But if you don't have a copy on
hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
as described below.

(2) With Info.  Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
to get to the section on bugs.  Or use standalone Info in
a like manner.  (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
not part of the Emacs distribution.)

(3) By hand.  Do
    cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs,  Node: Bugs,"

Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h P in Emacs) to
make sure it isn't a known issue.
