=head2 Non-default Functions

These functions which existed in perl5 still exist, but are not part of the default
namespace any more.

=head3 Container

The following functions can now be found in or replaced by something in the Container
modules.

delete, exists, pop, push, shift, splice, unshift

=head3 Numeric

See L<S32-setting-library/Numeric>.

=head3 IO

The following functions can now be found in or replaced by something in the IO
modules.

accept, bind, binmode, chdir, chmod, chown, close, closedir, connect
eof, fcntl, fileno, flock, getc, getsockname, getsockopt, glob, ioctl, link, listen
lstat, mkdir, open, opendir, pipe, print, printf, read, readdir, readline, readlink
readpipe, recv, rename, rewinddir, rmdir, say, seek, seekdir, select, send, setsockopt
shutdown, socket, socketpair, stat, symlink, sysopen, sysread, sysseek
syswrite, tell, telldir, truncate, umask, unlink

gmtime, localtime, time

module.

chop, chomp, index, lc, lcfirst, pack, quotemeta, rindex, split, sprintf, substr, uc,

=head2 Obsolete Functions

Some of these are obsoleted only as general functions, and are still available by using
the right packages.  Others are obsoleted in that they're keywords, rather than functions
(these are in their own section, below).

=over 4

=item %

 $num1 % $num2

Does a floating point modulo operation, i.e. 5.5 % 1 == 0.5 and 5 % 2.5 == 0.

=item dbmopen, dbmclose

 use DB_File;

=item dump

Dumped.  Restoring from core dumps is in any event not very useful on modern
virtual-memory operating systems.  Startup acceleration should be accomplished
using a precompiler of some kind (details will be very implementation specific),
or a pre-forking daemon such as Perl 5's App::Persistant (which will be an
external module when it is ported).

=item each

See .pairs() method, above.

=item endpwent, endgrent, endservent, endprotoent, endnetent, endhostent

The NameServices role in S16 covers most of these.

=item format, formline

See Exegesis 7.

=item getgrgid, getgrnam, getpwnam, getpwuid
