Significant changes that have occurred in the 5.8.3 build 809 release are documented in
perldelta. This document can be viewed by entering man perldelta.
Impact
There are no impacts other than those listed previously.
Compatibility
Perl 5.8 is not binary compatible with earlier releases of Perl. for XS modules. These
modules have to recompiled. (Pure Perl modules should continue to work.) The major
reason for the discontinuity is the new IO architecture called PerlIO. PerlIO is the
default configuration because without it, many new features of Perl 5.8 cannot be used.
In other words: you just have to recompile your modules containing XS code.
Performance
There are no known performance issues.
