0.15 Mar 20 2026

    called without $cpt/$name arguments (PR #2)

    Windows across multiple Perl versions (GH #4, PR #5)

  - Convert build system from Module::Build (Build.PL) to
    ExtUtils::MakeMaker (Makefile.PL) (GH #8, PR #10)

    assignment-as-condition and replace deprecated GIMME with GIMME_V
    (GH #9, PR #11)

  - Switch to Devel::PPPort for portability
  - Bump minimum Perl version to 5.14
  - Stop tracking META files in the repository

0.14 April 13 2018
  - Update issue tracker to github
  - Tidy all the things
  - README.md for github

0.13 May 5 2010
  - Remove Makefile.PL. M::B compatibility just doesn't work as expected
    and breaks on smokers

0.12 May 4 2010
  - Hide Safe::Hole::User from CPAN by moving the package name onto a
    different line

0.11 May 4 2010
  - Re-structure module to more modern layout. Convert to M::B
  - Re-factor tests to Test::More
  - Pod fixes now we're testing them
  - Clean up authors and generate proper META.yml
  - Fix 5.10 deprecation of defined %hash. Just use %hash to the same
    effect.

0.10 Fri Jan 16 2004
  - Don't local(*INC} unless $self->{INC}
  - This version by Brian McCauley <nobull@cpan.org>

0.09 Thu Jan 15 2004
  - Catch and re-throw exceptions (not doing so seems to cause segfault
    sometimes)
  - Restore opmask, %INC and @INC (default backward-compatible mode
    inhibits this)
  - test.pl now has some real tests
  - Safe::Hole::User namespace so that Carp can do the right thing
  - This version by Brian McCauley <nobull@cpan.org>
