Maybe it would help to track if this line in t/escape.t: my($parser) = Genealogy::Gedcom::Date -> new(debug => 0); Were to be replaced by my($parser) = Genealogy::Gedcom::Date -> new(debug => ($ENV{'TEST_VERBOSE'} || 0));

Thanx for the messages. These mysterious fails are a significant part of why I'm re-writing the code. There's no point in tracking this down. I've decided to abandon that version of the code and only work with my new, unreleased, version. I'm glad to say I'm part-way thru the new docs, but have not considered the calendar-changing options. -- Ron Savage - savage.net.au

I've completely re-written the code. See V 2.01 for details.
