Subject: t/compile.t may not use the correct perl binary
Hi, JJ. t/compile.t contains the line: my $output = `perl -c $file 2>&1`; Although this will work fine for most installations, I have several perl binaries on my system and I don't always use the first one in my $PATH. I've just seen compile.t fail because it picked up a different perl, so it probably makes sense to use $^X instead. Thanks, Tom Hukins
Confirmed here. I replaced the inflicting line with three and got a PASS. Erroneously my CPAN setup sent this as a PASS to cpan-testers:( use File::Spec::Functions qw(rel2abs); my $perl = rel2abs $^X; my $output = `$perl -c $file 2>&1`; It would be nice to get this bugger resolved. Thanks,
