Subject: Data::PostfixDeref + overload == boom
$ perl -wle 'use Data::PostfixDeref; use overload' Unmatched right curly bracket at /usr/local/perl/5.10.0/lib/5.10.0/overload.pm line 163, at end of line syntax error at /usr/local/perl/5.10.0/lib/5.10.0/overload.pm line 163, near "}" syntax error at /usr/local/perl/5.10.0/lib/5.10.0/overload.pm line 171, near "}" Compilation failed in require at -e line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1. This is also why it blows up with Test::More 0.86 but not 0.84. 0.84 loaded overload.pm in an eval but accidentally hid the error. 0.86 no longer hides the failure.

Thank you for the report. This explains why I was having trouble reproducing the CPAN testers failures I've been seeing: I didn't have the latest Test::More. v0.04 now on CPAN fixes the problem. Ben
