-=head1 NAME
-
-perl5130delta - what is new for perl v5.13.0
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-This document describes differences between the 5.12.0 release and the
-5.13.0 release.
-
-If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.10.0, first read
-L<perl5120delta>, which describes differences between 5.10.0 and
-5.12.0.
-
-=head1 Core Enhancements
-
-=head2 "safe signals" optimization
-
-Signal dispatch has been moved from the runloop into control ops. This
-should give a few percent speed increase, and eliminates almost all of
-the speed penalty caused by the introduction of "safe signals" in
-5.8.0. Signals should still be dispatched within the same statement as
-they were previously - if this is not the case, or it is possible to
-create uninterruptible loops, this is a bug, and reports are encouraged
-of how to recreate such issues.
-
-=head2 Assignment to C<$0> sets the legacy process name with C<prctl()> on Linux
-
-On Linux the legacy process name will be set with L<prctl(2)>, in
-addition to altering the POSIX name via C<argv[0]> as perl has done
-since version 4.000. Now system utilities that read the legacy process
-name such as ps, top and killall will recognize the name you set when
-assigning to C<$0>. The string you supply will be cut off at 16 bytes,
-this is a limitation imposed by Linux.
-
-=head2 Optimization of shift; and pop; calls without arguments
-
-Additional two OPs are not added anymore into op tree for shift and pop
-calls without argument (when it works on C<@_>). Makes C<shift;> 5%
-faster over C<shift @_;> on not threaded perl and 25% faster on threaded.

-=head1 Reporting Bugs
-
-If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the articles
-recently posted to the comp.lang.perl.misc newsgroup and the perl bug
-database at http://rt.perl.org/perlbug/ . There may also be
-information at http://www.perl.org/ , the Perl Home Page.
-
-If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the B<perlbug>
-program included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down to a
-tiny but sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the output
-of C<perl -V>, will be sent off to perlbug@perl.org to be analysed by
-the Perl porting team.
-
-If the bug you are reporting has security implications, which make it
-inappropriate to send to a publicly archived mailing list, then please
-send it to perl5-security-report@perl.org. This points to a closed
-subscription unarchived mailing list, which includes all the core
-committers, who be able to help assess the impact of issues, figure out
-a resolution, and help co-ordinate the release of patches to mitigate
-or fix the problem across all platforms on which Perl is supported.
-Please only use this address for security issues in the Perl core, not
-for modules independently distributed on CPAN.
