 Revision history for Variable-Magic
 
+0.38    2009-10-04 16:10 UTC
+        + Dep : All the signature-related features are DEPRECATED and will be
+                removed in december 2009. This includes the 'sig' option to
+                wizard(), the getsig() and gensig() functions, and the SIG_*
+                constants.
+                Afaik those features were never used in real life, and they make
+                the XS code slow and brittle. If you want your wizards to be
+                globally available, you'll have to handle that yourself by
+                storing them in a hash.
+        + Doc : More examples in a new COOKBOOK section.
+        + Fix : Compatiblity with the 5.11.0 release. The new compatibility
+                constant VMG_COMPAT_ARRAY_PUSH_NOLEN_VOID was added to cover
+                this.
+        + Fix : Work around Kwalitee test misfailures.

+        + Add : The new constant VMG_FORKSAFE can be tested to know whether the
+                module will behave nicely when fork()ing. It's currently always
+                true except on Windows where you need perl 5.10.1 for it to be
+                true.
+        + Doc : Nits and clarifications.

         + Chg : getdata() now returns an empty list when no magic is present.
                 It used to return undef but did not croak as stated in the doc.
