+0.47    2011-10-27 16:55 UTC
+        + Add : The new constant VMG_COMPAT_HASH_DELETE_NOUVAR_VOID evaluates
+                to true when "delete $hash{key}" does not call 'delete' uvar
+                magic in void context.
+        + Chg : The MAGIC tokens created by this module no longer use the
+                mg_private member for storing a "magical" signature.
+        + Fix : Triggering magic in a thread on a variable cloned from the main
+                interpreter, and when the wizard already went out of scope,
+                will not segfault anymore.
+        + Opt : The pointer table is no longer needed to ensure thread safety.
+                The size of the object code is about 8% smaller for threaded
+                perls.
+        + Tst : Threads tests will not fail anymore if resources constraints
+                prevent the system from creating all the required threads.

     You can refer to the tests to have more insight of where the different
     magics are invoked.
 

-    To prevent any clash between different magics defined with this module,
-    an unique numerical signature is attached to each kind of magic (i.e.
-    each set of callbacks for magic operations). At the C level, magic
-    tokens owned by magic created by this module have their "mg->mg_private"
-    field set to 0x3891 or 0x3892, so please don't use these magic (sic)
-    numbers in other extensions.
