Subject: Officially requires 5.10 but works with 5.8 (thankfully)
I'm trying to develop a strategy to upgrade a large codebase from 5.8 to 5.14. As part of that I'm experimenting with MyCPAN-App-DPAN which requires Distribution-Guess-BuildSystem. So I was disappointed to discover that Distribution-Guess-BuildSystem required 5.10. After removing the requires 5.10 line from Makefile.PL it built and passed tests fine. I think it's important to keep these kinds of modules working back to 5.8.
