Further digging shows that the problem relates to autogenerated constants from ExtUtils::Constant. ExtUtils::Constant is absent from 5.6.1, and is core in 5.8.*. I haven't been able to find a standalone ExtUtils::Constant, only the one that is part of the core. I know that older Time::HiRes versions worked under 5.6.1, so I'm looking at picking up an earlier version.

Time::HiRes 1.95 on its way through CPAN.

This is now building fine and passing all tests on Solaris with perl 5.6.1. However, your change may have intoduced a build problem which is affecting some platforms, see #23712. Up to you, but I am happy for you to close this ticket, but I will be watching the other one.

Thanks. Fixed but PAUSE doesn't let me upload Time-HiRes 1.96.

Fixed in 1.9701.
