+Subject: [PATCH] bin/automake: escape '{' in regexp pattern
+
+Based on perlre(1) documentation:
+.. in Perl v5.26, literal uses of a curly bracket will be required
+to be escaped, say by preceding them with a backslash ("\{" ) or
+enclosing them within square brackets ("[{]") ..
+
+References:
+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1239379
+
+* bin/automake.in (substitute_ac_subst_variables): Escape the
+occurrence of '{' character.

+    Use ustar format in the test_option_b test
+    
+    .. because the ustar archive does not store SELinux context.  As the default
+    format for bsdtar is "restricted pax" (trying to store xattrs and other
+    things by default), the test failed on Fedora because our files have by
+    default SELinux context set.  This results in additional data in tested
+    archive ~> and the test failed because the archive was unexpectedly big:
+    
+     tar/test/test_option_b.c:41: File archive1.tar has size 3072, expected 2048

+Subject: ensure File::Spec::canonpath() preserves taint
+
+Previously the unix specific XS implementation of canonpath() would
+return an untainted path when supplied a tainted path.
+
+For the empty string case, newSVpvs() already sets taint as needed on
+its result.
+
+This issue was assigned CVE-2015-8607.

+Bug: https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126862

+Subject: [PATCH] Sort the list of XS code files when generating RealPPPort.xs
+
+all_files_in_dir() uses readdir() ordering to make the list of
+input files. This can vary between build systems, breaking build
+reproducibility.
