dev_5.38.0_20230705_gcc13

For a list of known test failures and build issues with 5.36, many of which will be the same for this version, see https://github.com/StrawberryPerl/Perl-Dist-Strawberry/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Aperl5.36

Modules are the same as in the 5.36 dev releases except that DBM::Deep is patched using robkinyon/dbm-deep#22

Changes since the previous 5.38.0 dev release:

gdb should be working now

Main changes since the 5.38.0-RC2 dev release:

The t1lib has been disabled due to segmentation faults with Imager. Possibly this is a gcc-13 thing. See Issue #108

dev_5.38.0_RC1_20230618_gcc13

This is Perl 5.38.0 Release Candidate 1, Strawberry Perl portable edition.

It is compiled using gcc-13.1 (winlibs release 5).

To run the system call portableshell.bat in the top of the distribution.

Modules are the same as in the 5.36 dev releases except that DBM::Deep is patched using robkinyon/dbm-deep#22

(Edited title to fix version number)

Update 2023-06-20: The zip archive uses full path names for its contents (see #107). The next version will fix this but in the interim you can use tools like 7-zip to extract the relevant subdirectories if you don't want the files in C:\strawberry.
