Subject: Minimum perl version too high
The tests run fine with perl 5.10.1 if all "use 5.14" statements are removed from the code. I suspect that it would even run with perl 5.8. My suggestion is to remove all minimum perl version specifications, do a release (maybe a development release) and check the CPAN testers results. Additionally, "use utf8" also seems to be unnecessary --- I don't see any non-ascii stuff in lib/Parallel/WorkUnit.pm itself.

Agreed on both counts - the utf8 stuff is just boilerplate I should remove, and I'll validate this works on 5.8 and lower the version number appropriately.

I changed the minimum Perl version value to v5.8 or newer. I couldn't get my v5.6 install to run all of the prereqs, so v5.8 is probably as far back as I go.
