This descrip_mms.template mainly has changes that Craig Berry gave me
for support of ODS-5 file specifications.

I also changed the behavior of a DEBUG build to produce more useful
listing files.

The listing options should really be separated from the DEBUG option as
a listing with machine code is useful to have for a non-debug build.

There may be latent support present for using the standard stat structure.

I believe you mean files over 2GB via the _LARGEFILE definition, and
unless I'm even dottier than I think I am, support for this has
already been checked into the core and is available in 5.8.7.

When /show=all was first added, it didn't do nearly as much as it
does now, so yes, it's a bit more verbose than most folks would need.

Well, it's trivial to add whatever you want to extra_cc_flags at
configure time. I'm not sure I see a reason to more configuration
options to handle specific listing preferences.

Correct. Remember my diffs are against the perl 5.8.6 release.

Is 5.8.7 a release kit now?

Of course you have to know what options are there. I do not know the
configure process to that detail.

What I usually do is just change the symbols for the CC and LINK
commands for what listing options that I need. Having the /NOLIST
explicitly in the .MMS script foils that trick.

And what I have accomplished is mainly because I got assistance from you
and the others on this mailing list.

stable.tar.gz from CPAN is 5.8.7.
