Subject: No longer compiles under perl 5.005_03
Building Params-Util under an older perl no longer works: --cut-- [lth@dask3 Params-Util-0.11]$ perl -v This is perl, version 5.005_03 built for i386-freebsd [...] [lth@dask3 Params-Util-0.11]$ perl Makefile.PL exists operator argument is not a HASH element at Makefile.PL line 118. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 1. [lth@dask3 Params-Util-0.11]$ --cut-- I know that this perl is positively ancient by modern standards, but if it is just a question of a minor tweak in order to continue support, it would be good. Otherwise, please stick a version requirement in the Makefile.PL. It works fine under 5.6.2 and 5.8.8, by the way. /Lars

This _should_ be fixed now, with various Module::Install fixes. Can you recheck?
