* Locale::Maketext::Lexicon: Specifying the new "_auto => 1" option
  now turns on _AUTO fallback handling for all language handles.

  files passed in as part of a lexicon_get_() source.  We now silently
  ignore nonexistant files, only reporting error when it exists but
  cannot be read or parsed.

[Changes for 0.48 - 2005-03-12]

Patches from Thierry Vignaud:

* In Gettext.pm, do not silently skip last entry of a catalog.

  facto community standard.

  out by Jouke Visser.  This caused tests on Win32 to fail.

[Changes for 0.36 - 2004-03-17]

* "_encoding" now takes a special "locale" value, which will
  get the encoding from user's locale.

* Gettext used to break when the re-encoded lexicon
  contains Maketext's escape characters like "[" and "~".

* Extract.pm should not prepend an empty "" before a
  single-line "string\n".  Such treatments are meant for
  multiline strings.

[Changes for 0.35 - 2004-02-19]

rewrote them to totally avoid capturing parenthesis.

* Also modify Extract.pm to be not reentrant.

[Changes for 0.30 - 2003-10-13]

* '*' in sources will now get properlly expanded by globbing.

* The reentrant-regex transformation used in ::Gettext was

  approach.
