-+
-+The meaning of C<foreach{}> has changed slightly when it is iterating over a
-+list which is not an array. This used to assign the list to a
-+temporary array, but no longer does so (for efficiency). This means
-+that you'll now be iterating over the actual values, not over copies of
-+the values. Modifications to the loop variable can change the original
-+values.
-+
-+ @list = ('ab','abc','bcd','def');
-+ foreach $var (grep(/ab/,@list)){
-+ $var = 1;
-+ }
-+ print (join(':',@list));
-+
-+ # perl4 prints: ab:abc:bcd:def
-+ # perl5 prints: 1:1:bcd:def
-+
-+To retain Perl4 semantics you need to assign your list
-+explicitly to a temporary array and then iterate over that. For
-+example, you might need to change
-+
-+ foreach $var (grep(/ab/,@list)){
-+
-+to
-+
-+ foreach $var (@tmp = grep(/ab/,@list)){
-+
-+Otherwise changing $var will clobber the values of @list. (This most often
-+happens when you use C<$_> for the loop variable, and call subroutines in
-+the loop that don't properly localize C<$_>.)

--The meaning of foreach has changed slightly when it is iterating over a
--list which is not an array. This used to assign the list to a
--temporary array, but no longer does so (for efficiency). This means
--that you'll now be iterating over the actual values, not over copies of
--the values. Modifications to the loop variable can change the original
--values. To retain Perl 4 semantics you need to assign your list
--explicitly to a temporary array and then iterate over that. For

-+
-+Creation of hashes on the fly with C<eval "EXPR"> now requires either both
-+C<$>'s to be protected in the specification of the hash name, or both curlies
-+to be protected. If both curlies are protected, the result will be compatible
-+with perl4 and perl5. This is a very common practice, and should be changed
-+to use the block form of C<eval{}> if possible.
-+
-+ $hashname = "foobar";
-+ $key = "baz";
-+ $value = 1234;
-+ eval "\$$hashname{'$key'} = q|$value|";

-
--Otherwise changing C<$var> will clobber the values of @list. (This most often
--happens when you use C<$_> for the loop variable, and call subroutines in
--the loop that don't properly localize C<$_>.)
-+causes the following result:

--Some error messages will be different.

-
--Some bugs may have been inadvertently removed.
