Subject: 5.8.0 tests pass
I have tested this on 5.8.0. All tests pass. The only change required is to update this line: use 5.008001; I also noticed that "perl Makefile.PL" reports that 4 more modules are mandatory: perl Makefile.PL *** Module::AutoInstall version 1.03 *** Checking for Perl dependencies... [Core Features] - ExtUtils::MakeMaker ...missing. (would need 6.31) - ExtUtils::CBuilder ...missing. - ExtUtils::ParseXS ...loaded. (2.02) - Module::Build ...missing. (would need 0.28) - CPAN ...missing. (would need 1.80) ==> Auto-install the 4 mandatory module(s) from CPAN? [y] ##### But it actually lying. I can cancel at this point and all tests pass: prove -lv t/*t Maybe all those requirements belong in the "bootstrap" "if" clause of the Makefile.PL? Mark

I doubt it. Since the tests don't try to install anything, the fact that they pass without the required version of e.g. CBuilder isn't very meaningful.

I tried installing local::lib on a fresh built 5.8.0 (with help from the folks on #toolchain for building it) and it failed some IO::Zlib tests (needed for Archive::Tar needed for Module::Build). If you'd like the 5.8.1 requirement removed, please feel free to fix the test failures I'm seeing in 5.8.0, specifically, t/tied.t.
