Pidl is an IDL compiler written in Perl that aims to be somewhat
compatible with the midl compiler. IDL stands for "Interface Definition
Language".
Pidl can generate stubs for DCE/RPC server code, DCE/RPC client code and
ethereal dissectors for DCE/RPC traffic.
IDL compilers like pidl take a description of an interface as their
input and use it to generate C (though support for other languages may
be added later) code that can use these interfaces, pretty print data
sent using these interfaces, or even generate ethereal dissectors that
can parse data sent over the wire by these interfaces.
Pidl takes IDL files in the same format as is used by midl, converts it
to a .pidl file (which contains pidl's internal representation of the
interface) and can then generate whatever output you need. .pidl files
should be used for debugging purposes only. Write your interface
definitions in .idl format.
The goal of pidl is to implement a IDL compiler that can be used while
developing the RPC subsystem in Samba (for both marshalling/unmarshalling
and debugging purposes).

Make it so that the default Perl is always called perl5.
- Move Perl's man1 files along with its man3 files.
- Move where Perl installs its modules man1 pages.
- Convert the ports installing man1 pages.
- Make different Perl versions installable at the same time.
Though you should note that only the default version can be used to
install Perl modules, and the non default Perl versions cannot use the
modules installed via ports if they contain .so as they are installed
in a version specific directory.

Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
