  • JIT compilation takes less time in the release binary, which no longer runs a consistency check over every piece of machine code the JIT generates. The check is kept in debug builds.

  • File::Temp: the documentation of safe_level describes what it does. STANDARD, MEDIUM and HIGH are all honoured, and a parent directory that fails the check is rejected with Parent directory (...) is not safe; the page still said that the setter had no effect and that higher levels were lowered to STANDARD.

  • Translations: the description of B’s children method read as the description of length in 37 of the 41 languages and was empty in two; it is correct in all 41. The Estonian and French reference pages had translated argument placeholders such as LENGTH and SCALAR inside code, so the text explained arguments the English signature above it does not have; they match the signature again.
