Changes for version 0.33

  • Removed all proxy handling except LWP::UserAgent env_proxy from maint_ip_world_db. It was too ugly to fix. A new module will handle proxies in a future version.
  • Reconciled New vs. Newx call for perls < 5.8.8.
  • Added an implementation of inet_pton for Windows systems that don't include it. It's only included/used on such systems.
  • Revised IP::World::Builder to make databases writable before changing their mod dates, on Windows.
  • Revised tests 4-8 in each test file to use quoted numeric constants. This accomodates a weird cygwin test box that seemed to compile unquoted numeric constants as packed 32-bit values(?).
  • Fixed a little problem in the ip2country script which was contributed by a guy at WorldIP.
