| Subject: | New pair* functions do not work on perl 5.8.9 or 5.10.0 |
On 5.8.9 or 5.10.0 the return value seems to still have the CODE block in it as well:
# Failed test 'pairmap list'
# at t/pair.t line 40.
# Structures begin differing at:

t/pair.t ................
Failed 8/17 subtests
Since it works in 5.10.1 onwards, up to latest perl, it only seems to affect this very old and long-EOL'ed set of builds. I'm therefore not going to put any effort in currently to fix it, but if anyone has any insight or wants it fixed that old, I can take a look.
