cvs20hg converts a locally available CVS repository into a Mercurial
repository, with individual CVS commits collated into changesets.
It can be run incrementally to maintain a Mercurial version of a
CVS-based project.
(for example, http://hg.recoil.org/openbsd.hg)
- increase default thread stack size on amd64
- filter out corrupt env vars with no name
- Properly deal with error cases in transferTo0(). Corrects non-blocking
IO case.

In scripting languages like Perl, hashes are used all the time. In C,
hashes don't exist in the language itself. This software provides a hash
for C structures.

This module implements most of strptime(3), the POSIX function that is
the reverse of strftime(3), for DateTime. While strftime takes a
DateTime and a pattern and returns a string, strptime takes a string and
a pattern and returns the DateTime object associated.
This module is a quick and dirty way to determine if a cron time format is
valid for the current date and time.
A cron entry follows the cron format from crontab(5).
The validate_time function uses the current date and time for comparison,
but will also accept a valid DateTime object as a parameter.
This Perl module implements Perl hashes that preserve the order in which
the hash elements were added. The order is not affected when values
corresponding to existing keys in the IxHash are changed. The elements
can also be set to any arbitrary supplied order. The familiar perl array
operations can also be performed on the IxHash.
