[PATCH] ExtUtils::MM_Unix::parse_version

ExtUtils::MM_Unix::parse_version croaks with an error if a file contains a line of the form $AnotherModule::VERSION == ... $AnotherModule::VERSION != ... $AnotherModule::VERSION <= ... $AnotherModule::VERSION >= ... before the module's $VERSION definition. Below a patch with a slightly changed regex for parse_version and new tests. Regards, Slaven

Looks like this was fixed a while ago, at least the croaking part. Rather than continue to make a more and more convoluted regex, parse_version() now will simply keep trying until it gets something other than undef. So now this works. $Some::VERSION == 1.0; $VERSION = 2.3;
