This is an alpha release of MakeMaker, a release candidate for 6.54.  Its
mostly fixes to bugs introduced by 6.52 on VMS and Windows while building perl.


6.53_02  Sun Jun  7 19:24:56 PDT 2009
    Test Fixes
    * Stray use of Shell::Command broke older perls

    Other
    * MakeMaker will now automatically test itself with multiple
      perl versions before releasing.


6.53_01  Sun Jun  7 19:02:20 PDT 2009
    Bug Fixes
    * blib will now be rebuilt if the Makefile is changed
      [rt.cpan.org 46658]
    * 6.52 broke the setting of EXTRALIBS, LDLOADLIBS and BSLOADLIBS
      when $self->{LIBS}[0] is undefined.
      [rt.cpan.org 46633] (Craig Berry)

    Cygwin
    * Fixed MM_Cygwin.t when the path prefix (ie. cygdrive) has been
      changed by the user. [rt.cpan.org 46585] (JDHEDDEN)

    VMS
    * Removed attempts to compensate for the "bin" logical added
      by some versions of GNV, Craig says they're futile.
      Put a warning into the Makefile.PL instead.
      [rt.cpan.org 46679] (Craig Berry)
    * Removed the arch_check() special case for VMS.
      [rt.cpan.org 46678] (Craig Berry)

    Win32
    * Restore building the core by not trying to load the Win32
      module in arch_check() with miniperl.
      [rt.cpan.org 46667] (Max Maischein)

    Tests
    * Forgot to get rid of the tests for bytes and vmsish
      which were removed in 6.51_01.
    * Stopped running a Windows specific arch_check.t test
      on non-Windows. (Craig Berry)
      [rt.cpan.org 46678]
