Howdy folks,

bulk88 pointed out that I added some code to Devel​::PPPort in 3.22 for
SvREFCNT_dec_NN that doesn't free SVs when the refcnt reaches zero.

Since we're in a freeze and so close to release, I'm wondering which
option I should go with. I see three​:

  1. I can downgrade Devel​::PPPort in blead back to the earlier safe
version (reverting 8e5dcc3),

  2. I can attempt to fix Devel​::PPPort and release a new version and include it

  3. I can remove the bad function from Devel​::PPPort until I have
time to implement it properly across all Perls, and release a new
version and include it.

I'm kind of leaning towards 1 here.

This should be a blead blocker.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

I think 1 is the least risky alternative

Sounds best.

It is so marked.

This should be all set as of f001cc4.

Anything else need reverting? (Delta entry for upgraded module perhaps?)

the module deltas are generated automatically just in time; no need to revert things
