Perl

What's New in This Release:
Implemented Nelson Caro's patch 1.1 dealing mostly with Makefile.PL enhancements concerning older versions of Perl.
Implemented Nelson Caro's patch 1.2 dealing with efficiency improvements, and fault handling. Also, GetWindowPos() now returns the border width of a window.
Implemented Nelson Caro's patch 1.3; which improves GetWindowFromPoint() in dealing with correct window border width. Also, FindWindowLike now handles invalid windows better.
Applied patches cpan #13682(XK_Meta_L fallback) and cpan #13684 (StartApp) from Alexey Tourbin. Compiler define X11_GUITEST_ALT_L_FALLBACK_META_L enabled by default.
Added special # modifier for Meta_Left. This modifier can be used like the existing ones (Alt=%, Control=^, etc.).
Applied Nelson's updates to test.t. Helps to eleviate X server jams when using Exceed, for MS Windows. Also testing GetMousePos() in list context.
Applied Nelson's patch to support multi-screen operation in various functions. Certain functions now include an additional parameter to specify the screen number.
Corrected incompatibility between Xinerama and the XTest extension. Compile with X11_GUITEST_USING_XINERAMA defined. See Makefile.PL for details.
