Subject: Please indicate 5.8.3 required dependency in Makefile.PL
Hi, looking at the FAIL test reports being submitted to perl.cpan.testers, it seems that this module is not indicating that it requires perl 5.8.3 before it reaches the test suites -- where it fails miserably on all revisions less than 5.8.3, resulting in test failures being recorded against the module by the automatic testers. I suggest 'require 5.008003;' at the top of Makefile.PL or something similar. - R.

And, unfortunately, currently on all revisions greater than 5.8.3. :-( I'll look at having Makefile.PL test the release version more precisely. Damian
