    Update to 0.53

    Upstream changes:
    0.53    2013-09-01 17:50 UTC
            This is a maintenance release. The code contains no functional change.
            Satisfied users of version 0.52 can skip this update.
            + Fix : [RT #86338] : typo fix.
                    Thanks dsteinbrunner@pobox.com for the patch.
            + Tst : Author tests are no longer bundled with this distribution.
                    They are only made available to authors in the git repository.

    0.52    2012-11-05 02:30 UTC
            + Add : The new constant VMG_COMPAT_SCALAR_NOLEN evaluates to true
                    when your perl does not call 'len' magic for scalars, which
                    is the case for perl 5.17.4 and above.
                    This fixes RT #80388.
            + Tst : t/35-stash.t has been taught about perl 5.17.4.
            + Tst : Author tests overhaul.

    0.51    2012-08-18 15:00 UTC
            + Fix : It is now safe to call dispell() from inside 'free', 'copy' and
                    'uvar' callbacks to dispell the magic currently in use.
                    Thanks Clinton Gormley for reporting.
            + Fix : Exceptions thrown from inside a 'free' callback are now always
                    consistently propagated outside of the callback. They used to
                    be lost when the 'free' callback was invoked at the end of an
                    eval block or string.
            + Fix : The 'reset RMG flag' workaroundn used to allow wizards with
                    both 'uvar' and 'clear' magics to be cast onto a hash, has been
                    made thread-safe.

    0.50    2012-06-24 23:00 UTC
            + Fix : Less memory is leaked when a wizard is freed during global
                    destruction, or when an exception is thrown from a 'free'
                    callback.
            + Fix : [RT #77991] : t/17-ctl.t fails on perl 5.14 and 5.16.
                    This was actually an issue with ActivePerl, and this test
                    has learned to cope with it.
                    Thanks Gisle Aas for reporting.
            + Tst : t/35-stash.t has been taught about perl 5.17.1.
            + Doc : Many clarifications.

    0.49    2012-06-05 21:40 UTC
            This is a maintenance release. The code contains no functional change.
            Satisfied users of version 0.48 can skip this update.
            + Fix : [RT #77644] : t/17_ctl.t fails in test 44 since 5.17.0.
                    This test has been taught about perl 5.17.0.
                    Thanks Reini Urban for reporting.
            + Tst : t/99-kwalitee.t will be skipped when only problematic versions
                    of its dependencies are available.
