Notes for the perl package maintainers, and others who need to deal with
these files. Please read debian/cross/README first.

* by default, we assume that the config.sh files are valid if the current
  Perl upstream version matches the one in the config.sh

* if the upstream version has changed, debian/config.debian exits with
  a message indicating the need for refreshing the files

* this can also be triggered by creating debian/cross/<arch>/REFRESH; the
  contents of this file are then shown when debian/config.debian bails out

* the REFRESH functionality should be used at least when modifying
  Configure arguments in debian/config.debian
