Hi, I hope this reaches the proper people.
I was trying to install Time::Piece from CPAN under cygwin compiled
perl, but it fails a couple of the tests. I understand the the
strptime() function may be flaky with cygwin, so I suspect something
along those lines may be the reason here. Specifically, the "%A" format
specifier seems broken:
$ perl -MTime::Piece -e 'Time::Piece->strptime("Fri Oct 4 02:40:16
2002", "%A %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y")'
Error parsing time at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/cygwin-multi/Time/Piece.pm line 404.
...whereas changing "%A" to "%a" works ok. Anyway, any of this is is
helpful, here's the output of make test:
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib
