I've made updates up to the chapter 7 on Cleaning Up Code (in which I
added a section on defeating obfuscators). That chapter is also a bit
light in the perltidy section. Does anyone have some good perltidy
stories?

I also moved Profiling ahead of Benchmarking, because that's the order
you should do them in. :)

The profiling section has some interesting updates. Previously, I
tested everything on my Powerbook G4, but now I have a MacBook Pro
which is screaming fast so the slow things weren't slow anymore. I
added some bignum examples and then also talked about memoizing.

Other than that I've been applying the patches as people send them. Thanks :)
