Subject: Test fails in Perl 5.20 and newer
The 'bad file descriptor' test in t/005 prevents installing this module in recent Perl's. It seems that $! isn't being preserved. On Windows, this test works $^E eq 'The handle is invalid' but I don't know a more general one for other platforms.

For what it's worth, I let bisect determine which bleadperl version broke this. To reproduce you may need to install EXODIST/Test-Simple-1.001014.tar.gz on these perls because what they have is not good enough for some of the prerequisites nowadays and newer Test-Simple versions may fail with the 5.19.x series (see https://github.com/Test-More/test-more/issues/830) The result of the bisect is this: https://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commit/cbd58baf59
