Changes for version 0.22 - 2013-01-29

  • Implement suggestions from Dana Jacobsen (Unicode tests, specify minimum versions for dependencies, document installation on older Perls).
  • POD correction -- Removed reference to config_seed.
  • POD: Added INSTALLATION section to address issues with older Perls.
  • POD: Clarified "CAVEATS" with discussion of Unicode support in pre-5.8.9.
  • Added t/23-string_from_unicode.t to test Unicode on Perl 5.8.9+.
  • Added a Unicode example to examples/random_from.pl.
  • Set a CONFIGURE_REQUIRES to pull in a recent ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
  • Set minimum versions on some Core modules from which we're using newer features, or which behaved badly in old 5.6.x-contemporary versions.
