Subject: Use $^X instead of perl
Some of the test scripts in the Tie-FieldVals (e.g. 20_fv2xml.t) use a hardcoded "perl" in system() calls. This is problematic because there is no guarantee that perl is available in the user's PATH at all, or if there's a perl, that it's the same version as the one the user is testing. This probably explains a lot if not all test failures visible at www.cpantesters.org. It's better to use $^X instead of "perl". Regards, Slaven
