--Bad plan for non-IPv6-enabled systems
v2.02 (2016/08/09)
==================
--Typos in documentation (Debial Perl Group)
--Regex improvement for IPv6 addresses (theodore@grcrun11.gr)
v2.01 (2016/06/23)
==================
--Fixed error in prm where files weren't actually deleted if there was a
previous error in $! that set ENOENT
--Fixed error in Paranoid::Filesystem where umask was improperly applied
--Fixed error in popen where mode & perms weren't detainted completely
--Adjusted log file test to account for some timing issues on some platforms

v2.00 (2015/10/12)
==================
--Dropped support for Perl 5.6
--Eliminated most instances of croak/die in favor of expecting developers
to check the return value
--Complete rewrite of I/O layers and functions
--Added Paranoid::IO
--Added Paranoid::IO::Line
--Moved slurp, sip, etc., to Paranoid::IO::Line
--Rewrote slurp, sip, etc., to provide non-locking versions of functions
--Rewrote slurp, sip, etc., to leverage tuneable performance options from
Paranoid::IO
--Rewrote and moved Paranoid::Lockfile to Paranoid::IO::Lockfile
--Rewrote Paranoid::Log, Paranoid::Log::Buffer, and Paranoid::Log::File
--Renamed perror to pderror in Paranoid::Debug to avoid name conflict
with POSIX

--Added passed regex functionality to detaint
--Updated detaint to make target var (third argument) optional
--Updated detaint to work on arrays and hashes as well
--Improved/expanded module unit tests
--Eliminated use of prototypes except where absolutely needed
(which eliminates the need to pass by reference for many functions)

exclusively through Paranoid::Glob.
--Modified all Paranoid::Filesystem functions to reorder arguments in
actual order of importance, making optional arguments truly optional
--Made all Paranoid::Filesystem functions consistent in declaring
a filesystem target: you can pass either a string or a glob, but if
specifying disparate targets as a list you must pass it as a
Paranoid::Glob.
--Removed Paranoid::BerkeleyDB, Paranoid::Log::Syslog, and
Paranoid::Log::Email. Those are now in their own CPAN distributions.

v0.29 (2011/04/15)
==================
--Perl-5.6 compatibility fix: Socket in 5.6 doesn't export AF/PF_INET6,
so using Socket6's exclusively
--Perl-5.8 compatibility fix: Perl's parser chokes on the use of 'bare
word' imports (i.e., AF_INET), so calling them as subs.

v0.28 (2011/04/12)
==================
--Updated ipInNetwork in Paranoid::Network to support IPv6 networks &
