Strawberry Perl 5.42.2.1. MSI, portable and PDL editions. Compiled using GCC 13.2 with UCRT. Main differences from a standard Windows perl build using GCC: * Perl has been compiled using the same optimisations as Strawberry Perl 5.38.2.2 and 5.42.0.1. This uses additional options compared to the default `-Os`. `Config_heavy.pl` has then been updated to use `-O2` when building CPAN distributions.

Strawberry Perl 5.40.2.1. MSI, portable and PDL editions. Compiled using GCC 13.2 with UCRT. Main differences from a standard Windows perl build using GCC: * A version of https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/23179 is used. This has been modified to allow for version differences from perl 5.42 which it targets. * Perl has been compiled using the same optimisations as Strawberry Perl 5.38.2.2. This uses additional options compared to the default `-Os`. `Config_heavy.pl` has then been updated to use `-O2` when building CPAN distributions.

This is a beta release of Strawberry Perl 5.38.4.1. MSI, portable and PDL editions. Compiled using GCC 13.1 with MSVCRT. Main differences from a standard Windows perl build using GCC: * A version of https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/23179 is used. This has been modified to allow for version differences from perl 5.42 which it targets. * Perl has been compiled using the same optimisations as Strawberry Perl 5.38.2.2. This uses additional options compared to the default `-Os`. `Config_heavy.pl` has then been updated to use `-O2` when building CPAN distributions. Please log any issues with this version on #231 (Note that a beta1 was built but not released as it did not contain https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/23179 and thus the Error module did not build - see #240 ).

Known issues for 5.40 are at https://github.com/StrawberryPerl/Perl-Dist-Strawberry/issues?q=state%3Aopen%20label%3A%22perl5.40%22 Please log any issues with this version on #231

Strawberry Perl 5.34.3.1. MSI and portable editions only. There are no plans for a PDL version. Note that this uses the same external library stack as 5.32. These have not been updated. The primary intended use is for continuous integration and other general testing.

Strawberry Perl 5.34.3.1 development release. MSI and portable only. There are no plans for a PDL version. Uses the same stack as 5.32. External utilities have not been updated. Please test. Compilation of core perl uses `OPTIMIZATION=-Os`. Nearly all packaged modules under `vendor\lib` use `-O2`, except `BerkeleyDB` which uses `-Os`. Discussion for 5.34 is under #124

Strawberry Perl 5.40.1.1. MSI, portable and PDL editions. Compiled using GCC 13.2, with UCRT. Main differences from a vanilla perl (first two are the same as for SP 5.40.0.1): * POSIX has been patched as per https://github.com//Perl/perl5/pull/22257 * Perl itself is compiled using the same optimisations as Strawberry Perl 5.38.2.2. This uses additional options compared to the default -Os. * CPAN modules have been compiled with optimisation set to `-O2`. This is also set in Config so will apply by default to modules built from CPAN.
