SORRY, I MEANT GRAPH::EASY::EDGE::CELL. MY BAD :/

(THAT THE PROBLEM IS SO HARD TO SEE JUST MAKES MY POINT STRONGER IMHO 

IT GOES LIKE THIS:

GRAPH::EASY INCLUDES GRAPH::EASY::LAYOUT, WHICH DOES:

	USE GRAPH::EASY::EDGE::CELL QW/
	  EDGE_HOR EDGE_VER
	  EDGE_CROSS
	  EDGE_TYPE_MASK EDGE_MISC_MASK EDGE_NO_M_MASK
	  EDGE_SHORT_CELL
	 /;

AND THIS CAUSES THE POD COVERAGE TO COMPLAIN THAT THESE IMPORTED CONSTANTS 
ARE NOT COVERED BY THE POD. WHICH IS IMHO NOT RIGHT, AS THIS WOULD MEAN 
THAT SIMPLE THINGS LIKE "USE POSIX;" WOULD START TO COMPLAIN ABOUT A LOT 
NON-COVERED SUBROUTINES, BUT THESE AREN'T IN YOUR OWN CODE SO YOU SHOULD 
NEITHER DOCUMENT, NOT EXCLUDE THEM.

THE ATTACHED TESTCASE SHOULD DEMONSTRATE THE PROBLEM. RUN T/POD_COVER.T WITH 
POD::COVERAGE INSTALLED UNDER BLEAD AND V5.8.8.


I AM NOT SURE IF THIS REALLY TRIGGERS THE PROBLEM UNDER BLEAD, AS I HAVE 
ONLY 5.8.8 HERE AND IT WORKS UNDER 5.8.8.

ALL THE BEST,

TELS

LOOKING A THE CPAN TESTER REPORTS:

	HTTP://CPANTESTERS.PERL.ORG/SHOW/GRAPH-EASY.HTML#GRAPH-EASY
-0.58

I SEE THAT 5.10.0 31805 FAILS, BUT THE TWO REPORTS WITH 31806
PASS. 

SINCE
 
HTTP://PUBLIC.ACTIVESTATE.COM/CGI-BIN/PERLBROWSE?PATCH_NUM=3
1806&SHOW_PATCH=SHOW+PATCH

ONLY ADDS TESTS FOR "STATE", I AM UNSURE HOW THESE
TESTING RESULTS CAN BE. 
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THESE MACHINES AND WHY DOES
SOME PASS AND 
THE OTHER ONE NOT? 

(ONE EXPLANATION COULD BE THE OTHER MACHINES DO NOT HAVE
TEST::POD::COVERAGE 
ETC. INSTALLED)

ANDREAS, DOES THE ATTACHEMENT IN MY LAST MESSAGE WORK OUT
OKAY UNDER YOUR 
5.10.0?

ALL THE BEST,
