We thank the TPF sponsors to make this grant possible.
<pre>
I have spent the last month mainly doing two things:
Fixing various issues with overloading and the new multiconcat op. I
decided that rather than continue adding more and more special-case
handling to the existing code, I would handle the overloading in
pp_multiconcat() in a different way which avoids most edge cases.
This work is complete.
Making the parser die more gracefully if an attribute is encountered
*following* a subroutine signature (they were recently moved to precede
it). Currently the parser tends to just spew a whole bunch of confusing
warnings and errors.
This work is also complete.
