Subject: Lack of WIFEXITED not correctly detected under Perl 5.6
Hello, I find a compatibility problem in IPC-System-Simple-0.05 under Perl 5.6. When WIFEXITED is not implemented (for example in Perl 5.6 under Windows), you catch the croak emitted by POSIX (in order to apply a patch). You do that using a regex: if ( $@ =~ /not defined POSIX macro/ )… But under Perl 5.6, the message is “$constname is not a valid POSIX macro” (see attached file). I suggest you to change the regex by: if ( $@ =~ /not defined POSIX macro/ || $@ =~ /not a valid POSIX macro/)… This correction works fine with me. Bye.

patch). Thank-you very much for this, and especially for the patch, it's really appreciated. As I've got a free day this Sunday I hope to have a patched version of IPC::System::Simple out by the end of the weekend; I'll drop you an e-mail when that happens. All the very best, Paul

This should now be fixed in IPC::System::Simple 0.06 - available at a CPAN mirror near you! Thanks again for the bug report; it's very much appreciated.
