1. PlPerl.c patch

   Travis Bauer <trbauer@indiana.edu> — 2001-01-18T21:08:34Z

   I have attached a simple change to src/pl/plperl/plperl.c to
   enable the :bash_math opcodes.  Currently plperl.c only 
   enables the :default opcodes.  This leave out about five of six
   math functions including sqrt().
   
   It might be worth considering allowing the user's to enable
   other packages on the command line.  However, most of the other
   packages allow you to do things like access the underlying file
   system (as the owner of the backend process), make system calls, 
   and perform network operations.  
   
   The patch is off of the 7.0.3 released code.

   This seems like a reasonable change, but could we trouble you to
   submit it in diff -c format?  Without the context it's way too
   error-prone to apply.
