Revision history for Proc-Exists

0.13  2008-06-04 10:19 GMT  rev. 359
   - for speed, i18n, portability, and simplicity, pp_pexists now uses
     the numeric (not string) value of $! - in particular this fixes the
     pure perl implementation with non-english locales:

   - better handling of unexpected conditions in both perl and xs 
   - add misc/gather-info.pl for better portability data gathering
   - Proc::Exists::Configuration maintains EPERM and ESRCH values
     so we needn't rely on POSIX. Makefile.PL uses POSIX only if
     it's available at build time to determine these constants,
     otherwise we use the common EPERM==1, ESRCH==3
   - POD updated.
   - bring PREREQ_PM in line with reality, even for "trivial" modules
   - solaris10/gcc hacks are no longer triggered on all gnu systems
   - fix typo in Changes file: 0.12 was released in June, not May

   - various cleanups
   - minor optimization for the pureperl case
   - add t/01.info.t so we can glean some info about unusual OS's
     i don't have access to from smokers.
