I think the MetaYML tests are reporting a fail
"metayml_conforms_to_known_spec" on any META.yml containing an
"optional_tests" section. I think this is a bug in Test::YAML::Meta (RT
47393) in its recognition of the optional_features format.
If that gets fixed it'd be worth depending on a new enough
Test::YAML::Meta so as not to give false
"metayml_conforms_to_known_spec" failures. In fact in the interim it
could be well worth disabling or reducing the test, so as not to send
everyone digging around for what's wrong with their META.yml when in
fact it's ok. (A wound back test might for instance merely check that
the YAML module can read the file, without worrying about the contents.)
