The patch was introduced in commit 4c57844f0f ("lang/perl: Add hack to
make perl always use miniperl during build"), but it is not actually
necessary. By setting $perl to a non-empty value (using 'perl' as is
common on desktop distros), the logic works as intended and selects the
correct perl binary for host and target builds.
As miniperl just symlinks to host perl for target builds, the main
effect of this change is not unconditionally passing `-Ilib -I.`
anymore. This seems like a good thing; host libraries should be used
with host perl by default.

removed some sources to download perl. I believe I only need one source to download perl at https://www.cpan.org/src/5.0. I see some Linux distributions use that source to download.

Looking at Configure and Porting/config.sh, it seems that Perl
requires both of these options to build correctly.
Should fix FS #1464.

Required changes:
* Add qualifying '.' to scripts or to @INC, as appropriate since we're
enabling default_inc_excludes_dot;
* Add new platform/library definitions like double-double format and
locale library functions/headers;
* Delete patch 020 as it's been upstreamed;
Optional changes:
* Instead of using -@rm and having that fail, emit an error message,
and be ignored, just use @rm -f instead which will always succeed.

[CVE-2017-12837] Heap buffer overflow in regular expression compiler
Compiling certain regular expression patterns with the case-insensitive
modifier could cause a heap buffer overflow and crash perl. This has
now been fixed. [perl #131582]
[CVE-2017-12883] Buffer over-read in regular expression parser
For certain types of syntax error in a regular expression pattern, the
error message could either contain the contents of a random, possibly
large, chunk of memory, or could crash perl. This has now been fixed.

[CVE-2017-12814] $ENV{$key} stack buffer overflow on Windows
A possible stack buffer overflow in the %ENV code on Windows has been
fixed by removing the buffer completely since it was superfluous anyway.

The standard way to pass -rdynamic (or -Wl,--dynamic-export) is via

This replaces the previously used collection of configuration files for every single
architecture in conjunction with hacky overrides, which became an increasing burden to maintain.
Fixes a number of outstanding bugs and oddities, with the most important one being the
previously wrong signal order(as shown by ext/POSIX/t/sigaction.t).
See files/perlconfig.pl's POD and files/README.config for details.
