| Subject: | t/vmethods/text.t fails under Perl 5.17.11. |
Hiding in the bowels of perl51711delta.pod is the statement that the split() built-in has been modified so that if the first argument is an expression evaluating to ' ', it now behaves like a literal ' '.
Since test 35 of t/vmethods/text.t relies on the old behavior, it fails.
I am not sure what severity to give this. The test failure does not indicate a failure of Template-Toolkit code, and the behavior may not make it into a production version of Perl anyway. But it does require investigation and a force install.
Since the subject test actually tests the behavior of split() rather than Template-Toolkit, the attached patch simply removes the failing test.
