i asked clinton about this on irc moments ago and he said:

<@clintp> A quick grep for that rant turned up "* clintp points
to threads, unicode, 3-arg open, locales, and I/O disciplines for broad
categories of things that don't work as advertized in PP3."
                  
also, i'd suggest cross-referencing with C<man perldelta>. perldelta is
the definitive list of what's new in this perl version. gsar also did a
nice pretty version of this for perl.com at the time of 5.6.0 and
5.6.1's release.
