Subject: SvUPGRADE usage change

To: bug-Crypt-Blowfish [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Zefram <zefram [...] fysh.org>
SvUPGRADE() can't be used as a truth-value expression in current perl. It never actually returned false, so there's no need for the conditional. Attached patch fixes. -zefram

I've applied your patch and uploaded it as an unauthorized release, version number 2.12_001. I also emailed the author to let him know. Since it's been a couple months since this bug was reported, and since Perl 5.18 is now out (which is incompatible with the non-patched versions), it became more critical.
This ticket has been resolved in release 2.13 which has been uploaded to PAUSE. -dsp
