             separator over the old boring ".".
             
             "10.", that is, decimal numbers can have no decimal part at all.

        Log: rationalize locale handling to fix the bugs uncovered by 
             change#10394
             
             the major issue was that the runtime was looking at PL_hints 
             rather than op_private to notice whether locale was enabled
             
             the secondary issue was that many locale-sensitive numeric ops
             didn't have HINT_LOCALE propagated into their op_private
             
             HINT_LOCALE is now propagated per-statement (i.e., via PL_curcop)
             instead of per-op, just like HINT_BYTE and the hints for lexical
             warnings (this makes the hint available to every op via PL_curcop)
             
             pragma/locale.t may need to be reworked with these fixes in mind
             (it currently passes its tests)

        Log: fix leakage of lexicals at file scope into subroutines that were
             declared before them; this appears to be a longstanding bug that
             meant that lexicals at file scope were never "deintroduced", 
             meaning their scope range was never properly closed, and their 
             visibility extended to all subsequent eval""s or requires
             
             added a test case

        Log: port the glob() security patch found at:
             
             ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.8/common/025_glob.patch
             
             CERT advisory for the issue is here:
             
             http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2001-07.html
             
             Note that the security scare is only relevant for those who are
             foolish enough to build suidperl (which is now officially 
             discouraged)
