This document describes differences between the 5.38.2 release and the 5.38.3
10+

12+
If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.38.1, first read
13+
L<perl5382delta>, which describes differences between 5.38.1 and 5.38.2.
14+
15+
=head1 Incompatible Changes
16+
17+
There are no changes intentionally incompatible with 5.38.2. If any exist,
18+
they are bugs, and we request that you submit a report. See L</Reporting Bugs>
19+
below.

[L<GH #21271|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/21271>]

Fixed a crash or assertion when cleaning up a closure that refers to an outside
67+
C<our> sub. [L<GH #21067|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/21067>]
68+
69+
=item *
70+
71+
Don't clear the integer flag C<IOK> from lines in the C<< @{"_<$sourcefile"} >>
72+
array when a C<dbstate> op is removed for that line. This was broken when
73+
fixing [L<GH #19198|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/19198>].

[L<GH #21564|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/21564>]
75+
76+
=item *
77+
78+
Fixed an issue where C<utf8n_to_uvchr()> failed to correctly identify certain
79+
invalid UTF-8 sequences as invalid. Specifically, sequences that start with
80+
continuation bytes or unassigned bytes could cause unexpected behaviour or a
81+
panic. This fix ensures that such invalid sequences are now properly detected
82+
and handled. This correction also resolves related issues in modules that
83+
handle UTF-8 processing, such as L<Encode>.
84+
85+
=item *
86+
87+
Builds with C<-msse> and quadmath on 32-bit x86 systems would crash with a
88+
misaligned access early in the build.

[L<GH #22577|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/22577>]
90+
91+
=item *
92+
93+
Fixed a bug introduced in Perl 5.34 whereby uninitialized data in the
94+
underlying array of an AV after it has been unshifted and resized could lead to
95+
segmentation faults or other errors depending on the data.
96+
[L<GH #21235|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/21235>]
97+
98+
=item *
99+

Fixed an issue where Perl sometimes failed to correctly toggle into a dot radix
101+
locale. [L<GH #21746|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/21746>]
102+
[L<GH #22176|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/22176>]

Stopped certain syntax errors from provoking core dumps due to a double free of

an OP. [L<GH #21724|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/21724>]
108+
109+
=item *
110+

Fixed a double free error or possible memory leak when failing to compile
112+
certain regexps. [L<GH #21661|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/21661>]
113+
114+
=item *
115+
116+
Fixed the initialization of Perl's querylocale() emulation so that the locale
117+
is set correctly if the environment specifies a non-C locale.

Perl 5.38.3 represents approximately 14 months of development since Perl 5.38.2
125+
and contains approximately 5,600 lines of changes across 62 files from 22
126+
authors.
127+
128+
Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there were
129+

130+
131+

132+
of users and developers. The following people are known to have contributed
133+

The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically generated
142+
from version control history. In particular, it does not include the names of
143+
the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to the Perl bug
144+
tracker.
145+
146+
Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules
147+
included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for
148+
helping Perl to flourish.
149+
150+
For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please see
151+

=head1 Reporting Bugs
154+
155+
If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the perl bug database at
156+
L<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>. There may also be information at
157+
L<http://www.perl.org/>, the Perl Home Page.
158+
159+
If you believe you have an unreported bug, please open an issue at
160+
L<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>. Be sure to trim your bug down to a
161+
tiny but sufficient test case.
162+
163+
If the bug you are reporting has security implications which make it
164+
inappropriate to send to a public issue tracker, then see
165+
L<perlsec/SECURITY VULNERABILITY CONTACT INFORMATION> for details of how to
166+
report the issue.
