Log Message:
-----------
perl.h - silence certain warnings on HPUX globally.
There are two warnings classes which account for a very large number of
the warnings produced when building on HPUX Itanium. We know the cause
of these warnings and we are ok with ignoring them.
One set comes from our memory wrap checks, where we end up doing a
comparison against constants in certain conditions. See the comments in
handy.h line 2723 related to PERL_MALLOC_WRAP.
The other set comes from our common "trick" of doing OO in C code with
casting. This is the foundation of how we manage SV types and how we
manage regular expression ops (regops).
If this logic really was a problem then we would have lots of test
failures and segfaults, and we do not, so we can silence them.

Changed paths:
M regcomp.h
Log Message:
-----------
regcomp.h - use different struct member names for U8 vs U32 str_len
It is confusing to have two different members, at different struct
offsets and with different sizes, with the same name. So rename them
so they have different names that include their size so it is obvious
what is going on.

Log Message:
-----------
regcomp.h - use a common union for head and args across all regnodes.
This helps with HPUX builds where we need to ensure everything
is aligned the same (on 32 bit boundaries). It also strongly
encourages everything to use the accessor macros and not access
the members directly.
By using a union for the variadic fields we make it more obvious
that some regops use the field in different ways. This patch
also converts all the arg unions into a standardized union with
standardized member names.

HPUX was warning that it can be used before it is initialized.
There is no cost to nulling it out early so do so.

Changed paths:
M op.c
Log Message:
-----------
op.c - deal with not-reached statement warning
The return statement could never be reached as the while loop
is while(1) and there is no break statement inside of it. This
patch replaces the 'return arg;' with a NOT_REACHED; assertion,
just in case someone does add a break later on without thinking.

sv.c - don't cast SVTYPEMASK to svtype, use SvIS_FREED() instead.
svtype is an enum with 18 values. SVTYPEMASK is 31. A picky compiler
(like on HPUX) will complain that casting 31 to a svtype is an error.
We have SvIS_FREED() to do this properly anyway.

-----------
Porting/cmpVERSION.pl - deal with old git clients better in tag date parsing
The HPUX box we smoke on does not have a modern git and chokes
on taggerdate:unix, so we use taggerdata:iso8601 instead, and
then parse the date with Time::Local.

Log Message:
-----------
t/op/sprintf2 - TODO some failing tests for %g.
On HPUX none of the usual methods for doing high precision %g seem to
work:
Checking for an efficient way to convert floats to strings.
Trying sprintf...
sprintf() found.
sprintf length mismatch: Expected 55, got 38
...But sprintf didn't work as I expected.
Trying gconvert...
gconvert NOT found.
Trying gcvt...
gcvt() found.
gcvt length mismatch: Expected 55, got 38
...But gcvt didn't work as I expected.
*** WHOA THERE!!! ***
None of ( sprintf gconvert gcvt) seemed to work properly. I'll use sprintf.
So we can safely TODO these tests for now.

ExtUtils-ParseXS - silence warnings about unreached code in generated XS code
On HPUX we get a lot of:
"APItest.c", line 4004: warning #2111-D: statement is unreachable: PUTBACK
because people have used something like XSRETURN(1); and we generate
code that does PUTBACK; return; Adding a pragma to silence it makes the builds
happier;

regcomp.c - eliminate assignment in while condition
This gives covertiy heartburn, and also makes the HPUX compiler
whine. Reworking it so that it is a while 1 and the condition determines
if we break out of the loop resolves the heartburn and makes for more
readable code.

util.c - avoid warning about truncated pointer value
This code is part of the fallback rng initialization, it should
only be used in odd circumstances, and it is intended to be "random"ish,
so the logic change should not be a problem.
This more or less reverts commit 4b4c4ab35e70f005167c863eae6d2003492c393c,
although the S_ptr_hash() now lives in util.c instead of hv.c.
Turns out having a decent pointer hash /is/ useful.

We were already silencing it on GCC, so lets add HPUX to the party.
Unfortunately I have not figured out a way to have a nice neat define
for it like we have for GCC or MSVC. :-(
Silences this:
"intrpvar.h", line 941: warning #3215-D: function "Perl_sv_nounlocking"
(declared at line 5934 of "proto.h") was declared deprecated
PERLVARI(I, unlockhook, share_proc_t, PERL_UNLOCK_HOOK)
^
We probably should add the same for MSVC as well.

This version should do the same thing, the only difference being
it doesnt allow a semicolon on the macro call.

I added a version check around the logic as the comment already says
that "In HP-UXes prior to 11.23 strtold() returned a HP-UX specific
union called long_double, not a C99 long double."
The logic did not check for the version mentioned in the comment, it
simply greped for something that is no longer present in the file:
grep 'double strtold.const' /usr/include/stdlib.h
outputs nothing on HPUX version B.11.31.
But
grep "double strtold" /usr/include/stdlib.h
outputs:
extern long_double strtold __((const char * __restrict, char ** __restrict));
extern long double strtold __((const char * __restrict, char ** __restrict));
on HPUX version B.11.31.
