Fails on 5.8.x

The matrix illustrates nicely that 5.8.x fail: http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=WWW-Mechanize-Firefox%200.35 It seems to come from the use of mro which doesn't come with 5.8: http://search.cpan.org/grep?cpanid=CORION&release=WWW-Mechanize-Firefox-0.35&string=mro&F=1&n=1&C=0 It seems you can use MRO::Compat instead of use mro there. (I have tried) Best,

Ah, that's great! I was thinking more of splitting off ::DSL into its own distribution, but if I can use MRO::Compat instead, I can keep easy support for 5.8.x. Thanks for the report and fix, -max

This should be fixed with 0.36, which now relies on MRO::Compat instead of mro.pm
