Subject: Test suite fails with perl 5.21.x (locale issue?)
The test suite fails for perl 5.21.x if a non-English locale is used. See here for a sample fail report: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/3a3ab35e-5e30-11e4-90ed-a5b4dfbfc7aa Tests are fine on the same system if I set LC_ALL=C before. This may or may not be a regression in perl itself.

Thanks for the report. This one has been tricky to get right.

I've uploaded 0.021-TRIAL that has some more diagnostics - hopefully this might shed some light.

The TRIAL version looks good — no more failures with perl 5.21.x and German locale.

Excellent! Thanks so much for your help with this Slaven. This time and the last time.
