Bleadperl recently updated to Test-Harness 3.21. If you build perl with
sh /path/to/Configure -Dmksymlinks [etc.]
then the perl tree is composed of symlinks to the original files. The new
test file t/source.t then fails with the following message:
cpan/Test-Harness/t/source.....................................# Failed test 'assemble_meta for file'
# at t/source.t line 133.
# Structures begin differing at:
# $got->{is_symlink} = '1'
# $expected->{is_symlink} = '0'
FAILED at test 19
I don't know whether simply skipping that test is appropriate, so I
haven't suggested a specific patch.
