This reinstates features deleted in recent versions of perl.
The features we currently provide are:
• split to @_ in void and scalar context. This feature was removed in
perl 5.11. With this module, you can have it back.
• $* - This was removed in perl 5.9.
• $[ - This was removed in perl 5.15.3 and reinstated in 5.15.5. This
may be removed from Classic::Perl (and then reinstated if it is
again removed from Perl).
