Subject: Filter::sh problem under MSWin32
Hi Paul, I've encountered that t/sh.t fails on Windows when tr.exe is in path. Digging further, I found that "use Filter::sh" fails with following message: == Couldn't create What::MTA object with PeerAddr=/c, PeerPort=perl, Proto=tcp, Timeout=120 at C:/bin/dev/perl/site/lib/What.pm line 79 == It's for use Filter::sh 'perl -v'; Same thing happens to sh.test when running "make test". When there's no "tr.exe", tests are skipped and all tests are successful. -- Serguei Trouchelle

I tested it on ActivePerl without tr.exe and with a working mingw tr.exe in the path. All tests pass. But I don't see what What::MTA should have to do with it. -- Reini Urban
