- updated to 0.77
 * Split out HEK size calculation into hek_size(). Add the shared HE overhead.
 * Handle shared hash key scalars correctly.
 * GvNAME() is shared from 5.10 onwards.
 * Count HvNAME(), the HV "aux" struct, the mro_meta struct, and ENAMEs.

0.75_52 2011-05-09 nicholas
 * Use a table for SV body sizes. These incorporate the space saving post 5.8.x
 * Correctly handle SvOOK scalars. 5.12 and later don't use SvIVX().
 * Magic vtables aren't freed when magic is freed, so don't count them.
   (They are static structures. Anything that assumes otherwise is buggy.)
 * Reinstate 5.6.x "support". (i.e. it compiles and passes tests.)
 * Reinstate 5.005_xx "support". (i.e. it compiles and passes tests.)

0.75_51 2011-05-05 nicholas
 * Only use a static array of vtables on gcc.

0.75_50 2011-05-04 nicholas
 * The core's magic vtables are global constants, so aren't part of the size.
 * Follow mg_obj and mg_ptr.

0.74_53 2011-05-01 nicholas
 * Fix typo error in bit-vector tracking mechanism. On 64 bit platforms which
   allocate on 8 byte alignment (rather than 16), a low pointer bit could get
   lost, resulting in new pointers being considered already "seen".
   "Found" by BinGOs' smoker, fixed on spectre.mongueurs.net. Thanks.

0.74_52 2011-04-23 nicholas
 * Fix potential SEGVs for OP_AELEMFAST on a lexical (eg $foo[3])
 * Fix likely SEGVs for PVOPs (missing break)
 * Fix potential SEGVs for PVBMs on 5.10 and later
 * Move hash and array traversal from total_size() to sv_size()
   - this allows total_size() and size() to be XS ALIASes.

0.74_51 2011-04-22 nicholas
 * Don't count PL_sv_{undef,no,yes} in the size returned
 * total_size() was double-counting entries in typeglobs
 * sv_size() was double-counting the PVGV size if GvEGV() looped back
 * fix classic off-by-one error - the answer is strlen() + 1, not just strlen()

0.74_50 2011-04-19 nicholas
 * Ensure that size() doesn't add the referent's size for non SVt_RV references

- updated to 0.74
   * Correct the Makefile.PL - LICENSE was added to ExtUtils::MakeMaker in 6.31
  
   * Refactor the C code to accumulate the size inside the tracking structure
     - this means that the C *_size() functions now return void
     - The XS functions size() and total_size() now return UV, not IV
  
   * Avoid using assert() on ithreaded 5.8.8 and earlier, as it needs my_perl
   * Fix the test added in 0.73, as it tripped over a combination of bugs
  
   * Revert a bad assertion introduced in 0.72_50, which was logically wrong.
     - and a test to demonstrate one case that would trigger it
  
   * Add a test for the non-exceptional warnings.
  
   * Add PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT to improve performance under multiplicity
  
   * Exception handling is totally MSVC specific, so only use it there
     - this means that we don't need to use a C++ compiler anywhere
   * Rework bit-vector tracking mechanism to use a 256-way tree. This avoids
     making assumptions about 64-bit platforms' memory layouts, and eliminates
     the fatal error introduced in 0.72 when the assumption was violated.
   * Convert to XSLoader
   * Resolve CPAN #49437 (Devel::Size adds magic in Perl 5.10)
   * Resolve CPAN #58484 and #58485 (related to CVs that are XSUBs)
  
   * Added bit-vector pointer tracking mechanism.
     - new fatal error (64-bit platforms only)
   * Added exception handling
      - 4 new warnings (disabled by default)
   * Updated POD to reflect above
   * Added basic.t test 13
   * replaced Module::Install with hand crafted EU::MM Makefile.pl
     (With many thanks to Sisyphus)
     because we couldn't work out how to add C++ options to allow
     exception handling.
