/*
 * In order for a Perl extension module to be as portable as possible
 * across differing versions of Perl itself, certain steps need to be taken.
 * Including this header is the first major one, then using dTHR is all the
 * appropriate places and using a PL_ prefix to refer to global Perl
 * variables is the second.

/* If you use one of a few functions that were not present in earlier
 * versions of Perl, please add a define before the inclusion of ppport.h
 * for a static include, or use the GLOBAL request in a single module to
 * produce a global definition that can be referenced from the other
 * modules.

 * data from C.  All statics in extensions should be reworked to use
 * this, if you want to make the extension thread-safe.  See ext/re/re.xs
 * for an example of the use of these macros.
 *
 * Code that uses these macros is responsible for the following:
 * 1. #define MY_CXT_KEY to a unique string, e.g. "DynaLoader_guts"
 * 2. Declare a typedef named my_cxt_t that is a structure that contains
 *    all the data that needs to be interpreter-local.
 * 3. Use the START_MY_CXT macro after the declaration of my_cxt_t.
 * 4. Use the MY_CXT_INIT macro such that it is called exactly once
 *    (typically put in the BOOT: section).
 * 5. Use the members of the my_cxt_t structure everywhere as
 *    MY_CXT.member.
 * 6. Use the dMY_CXT macro (a declaration) in all the functions that
 *    access MY_CXT.
