Correct a deviation from the Nicholas Clark style guide.
[ 23073]
A more honest TODO
[ 23077]
Resurrect the TODO items about Unicode filenames and Unicode %ENV
Rant a bit more about POD -> HTML
[ 23078]
Dual lifing and dists is a TODO
[ 23081]
Finding a way to put "I'm MAINT" in perl -v is a TODO
[ 23082]
A decent benchmark would be useful. But it is vague.
[ 23094]
Generalised "how many in list context" would be useful
[ 23103]
s/sort/split/; - my mistake spotted by Dave.

Perl_mode_from_discipline must update len. (else SEGV)
Diagnosis and patch from clkao
[ 23083]
Perl_is_utf8_string(pTHX_ U8 *s, STRLEN len)
Can now handle the case
is_utf8_string(NULL,0)
again.
Why do we have code dup for Perl_is_utf8_string_loc() ?
[ 23084]
NI-S: IMHO utf8_upgrade is just changing representation not the value
so it has no business calling SvSETMAGIC.
[ 23085]
Bodge to make Tk work - like the UTF8 flag, the READONLY flag has too
many meanings. const const vs mutable in this case.

"perldoc perldelta" still says 5.8.3 to 5.8.4, even though there

[perl #29708] Problem with autouse (causing Perl to crash)
@_ sometimes wasn't getting created right
[ 22913]
[perl #30061] double DESTROY in for loop
pp_iter decremented the ref count of the previous iterant before
unaliasing it. This could lead to DESTROY being called with the
loop variable still aliased to the freed value. If the DESTROY
also contained a for loop with the same iterator variable, the
freed value would get resurrected then freed for a second time.
