Subject: Fails on nvsize!=8 due to string comparison on floating point number
As per subject. Sample fail report: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/aa45a4e0-1661-11e4-86aa-ee5d0a370852 Maybe you want to deploy Test::Number::Delta for the test, it provides a convenient interface. Or you avoid floats. HTH && Thanks, (Disclaimer: this was discovered by statistical analysis, I'm not speaking as a user)

Hi. I released 2.3 yesterday which changed some of the comparisons. I didn't see this specific sort of failure in the 2.x series test failures, but expect to keep an eye out. I saw one failure which might be related but as I look at the test failures were nvsize=8 (the issue was that Windows systems were rounding numbers differently). I would like to apologize on the late reply. We've been revamping our handling of emails from PAUSE/RT/CPANTesters etc. and I don't think the notification got to the right place.
