That level of failure looks an awful lot like a dirty test directory. On the suspicion that cpanm caused interference, could you manually download and build 6.58 from a fresh tarball and see if there is the same effect?

further testing show's this is caused by HARNESS_OPTIONS="j4" . I'm guessing this is not supported at this time, perhaps a test could be added to check for parallel harness. -- Caleb Cushing http://xenoterracide.com

Yeah, there's been no work to parallelize the tests. I'd very much welcome that work. The major problem is the tests all use dummy modules with the same names and thus directories so the parallel tests trip over each other. See t/lib/MakeMaker/Test/Setup/ These would have to be changed to use generated names and the interfaces changed to pass those names back to the tests. -- 125.
