Stuff with the Perl Foundation. A couple of patches in the Perl core. A few CPAN modules. That about sums it up.

I've had enough problems with code with global effects both causing bugs in our code and having performance hits that we've today developed a system to handle local CPAN patches to make these issues go away. One thing I did to check to see how widespread the problem is to run the following code over our CPAN library:
ack '(?:CORE::GLOBAL|UNIVERSAL)::[[:word:]].*=' lib/
The results were depressing and I'll be outlining our 'local patching' system in the test talk I'll be giving in Oslo (and hopefully at OSCON).
I pour myself a cup of strong coffee. :-)
