now slices etc with dataflow turn off backward dataflow if any input has inward-only dataflow (#485)
add GSL::RNG::ran_shuffle_1d
add IO::Pic support for XBM
fix typemaps for future Perl versions (#487) - thanks @HaraldJoerg
$PDL::infoformat now default for info method (#491) - thanks @jo-37
move PDL::Graphics::LUT to PGPLOT distro
add GSL::RNG bindings for most _pdf functions
add demo of GSL::RNG
fix MatrixOps::eigens for asymmetric case inc complex eigenvectors
fix GSL problem on Windows (#493) - thanks @shawnlaffan for report
wfits fixed to handle multi HISTORY (#488, #489) - thanks @d-lamb for report

Changes for version 2.089_02 - 2024-06-26

PDL::VectorValued::vcos into Primitive - thanks @moocow-the-bovine
remove PDL_TRACEDEBUG functionality
fix non-Perl created ndarray getting destroyed after Perl visibility (#484)
fix ones-optimisation problem in useithreads Perls which broke PDL::Parallel::threads
add Ufunc::magnover (https://github.com/nrdvana/perl-Math-3Space/pull/8)
Ops::abs2 now PP op that doesn't first calculate sqrt for complex
replace doflow,set_dataflow_f with one-shot-each-time flowing (#485)

Changes for version 2.089_01 - 2024-06-05

add demo of GSL::CDF
floating-point-only operations in Ops, Primitive, Bad now default to double, not cldouble
fix treating a large Perl UV as an IV so getting sign wrong (#469)
remove obsolete $PP()
pptest.t now uses build dir to avoid noexec mount problems
on pdl_destroy, the sv member IV is set to 0 not a random number - thanks @fantasma13 for report
rename Primitive::srand to srandom to avoid clash with Perl (#472)
