+
+perl54113delta - what is new for perl v5.41.13
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This document describes differences between the 5.41.12 release and the 5.41.13
+release.
+
+If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.41.11, first read
+L<perl54112delta>, which describes differences between 5.41.11 and 5.41.12.
+

+=head2 Assigning logical xor C<^^=> operator
+
+Perl 5.40.0 introduced the logical medium-precedence exclusive-or operator
+C<^^>.  It was not noticed at the time that the assigning variant C<^^=> was
+also missing.  This is now added.

+Exceptions thrown and caught entirely within a C<defer {}> or C<finally {}>
+block no longer stop the outer run-loop.
+
+Code such as the following would stop running the contents of the C<defer>
+block once the inner exception in the inner C<try>/C<catch> block was caught.
+This has now been fixed, and runs as expected. ([L<GH #23064|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/23064>]).
+

+        try { die "It breaks\n"; }

+=item *
+
+L<perlfunc/readline> now clears the error flag if an error occurs when
+reading and that error is C<EAGAIN> or C<EWOULDBLOCK>.  This allows
+old code that depended on C<readline> to clear all errors to ignore
+these relatively harmless errors.  [L<GH #22883|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/22883>]
+
+=item *
+
+L<C<open>|perlfunc/open> automatically creates an anonymous temporary file
+when passed C<undef> as a filename:
+
+    open(my $fh, "+>", undef) or die ...
+
+This is supposed to work only when the undefined value is the one returned by
+the C<undef> function.
+
+In perls before 5.41.3, this caused a problem due to the fact that the same
+undefined value can be generated by lookups of non-existent hash keys or array
+elements, which can lead to bugs in user-level code (reported as [L<GH #22385|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/22385>]).
+
+In 5.41.3, additional checks based on the syntax tree of the call site were
+added, which fixed this issue for some number of common cases, though not all
+of them, at the cost of breaking the ability of APIs that wrap C<open> to
+expose its anonymous file mode. A notable example of such an API is autodie.
+
+This release reverts to the old problem in preference to the new one for the
+time being.

+=head1 Acknowledgements
+
+Perl 5.41.13 represents approximately 5 weeks of development since Perl
+5.41.12 and contains approximately 5,200 lines of changes across 180 files
+from 20 authors.
+
+Excluding auto-generated files, documentation and release tools, there were
+approximately 1,200 lines of changes to 92 .pm, .t, .c and .h files.
+
+Perl continues to flourish into its fourth decade thanks to a vibrant
+community of users and developers. The following people are known to have
+contributed the improvements that became Perl 5.41.13:
+
+Aristotle Pagaltzis, Chris 'BinGOs' Williams, Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker, Dan
+Book, David Mitchell, Graham Knop, H.Merijn Brand, James E Keenan, Karen
+Etheridge, Karl Williamson, Leon Timmermans, Lukas Mai, Paul Evans, Paul
+Johnson, Philippe Bruhat (BooK), Richard Leach, Sisyphus, Thibault
+Duponchelle, Todd Rinaldo, Tony Cook.
+
+The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically
+generated from version control history. In particular, it does not include
+the names of the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to
+the Perl bug tracker.
+
+Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules
+included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for
+helping Perl to flourish.
+
+For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please
+see the F<AUTHORS> file in the Perl source distribution.

+=head1 Reporting Bugs
+
+If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the perl bug database
+at L<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>. There may also be information at
+L<https://www.perl.org/>, the Perl Home Page.
+
+If you believe you have an unreported bug, please open an issue at
+L<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>. Be sure to trim your bug down to a
+tiny but sufficient test case.
+
+If the bug you are reporting has security implications which make it
+inappropriate to send to a public issue tracker, then see
+L<perlsec/SECURITY VULNERABILITY CONTACT INFORMATION>
+for details of how to report the issue.
+
+=head1 Give Thanks
+
+If you wish to thank the Perl 5 Porters for the work we had done in Perl 5,
+you can do so by running the C<perlthanks> program:
+
+    perlthanks
+
+This will send an email to the Perl 5 Porters list with your show of thanks.
