Subject: Make YAML compatible with 5.005_03
YAML requires Perl 5.6.1. It's also a dependency of CPAN.pm now. Which means essentially that no host anywhere with Perl 5.005 is able to upgrade their CPAN.pm version. Amoungst other things, that also means that no 5.005 host will be able to support Module::Build properly, as a newer CPAN.pm is required for that. Convert the YAML code to be compatible with older 5.005_03 Perl versions. This may also end up cascading down to Test::Base and Spiffy too, which are also 5.6.1

Module::Build now requires 5.6.1 and YAML - 5.8, so this bug can be closed. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

I believe that the dropping of 5.005 support from the CPAN toolchain as a whole was intentional. 5.6.1/2 is the new target for back-compatibility. Adam K 2009/10/6 Alexandr Ciornii via RT <bug-YAML@rt.cpan.org>: Show quoted text
