The final bug report (xemacs21-packages) has been filed today; the list
is at

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=perl-cwd-inc-removal;users=debian-perl@lists.debian.org

(thanks to gregoa for his NMUs and anyone else helping with this effort)
and the notes about this are at

https://gobby.debian.org/export/Teams/Perl/Perl-cwd-inc-QA

I might be able to make the switch in sid on Monday; if nothing else,
I'll upgrade the bugs at some point over the weekend.

Dominic.
