Bug Information
Severity: Important
Broken in: 5.42
Fixed in: (no value)



Subject: Events output appears to depend on 'non-random' hash keys.
Running 'make test' on DateManip-5.42a breaks on the 'event' tests under Perl 5.8.1. It appears that the return values of this function as expected by the static comparison text are changed now that hash key retrieval is more random. Setting PERL_HASH_SEED = 0 in the build environment before running 'make test' allows the event tests to pass without modification.
From: mschwendt [...] users.sf.net
This is the same as reported in bug 3896, but the PERL_HASH_SEED = 0 workaround is interesting.
