[PATCH] plperl: use xsubpp -output unconditionally

Started by Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker10 months ago2 messageshackers

Hi hackers,

I noticed that the PL/Perl makefile makes the use of the -output option
conditional on coverage+vpath, because that option is not supported
until Perl 5.9.3. But these days we require Perl 5.14, so we can remove
that conditional (which also matches what Meson does). Please see the
attached.

Nice catch. On that note, shouldn't we also be updating ppport.h with a new
--compat-version run?
