Test::Builder/More/Simple 0.71

The big change here?  No more sort_bug.t.  Bye bye 90% of my
spurious bug
reports.  It was testing two deprecated functions and tended
to hit bugs in
threaded perls that I can't fix and the user doesn't care
about.

I replaced with with a similar test for is_deeply().  If
that blows up under
threads then its important.

    Bug fixes
    - Fixed a problem with BEGIN  silently failing
when there's no
      plan set.  [rt.cpan.org 28345]  Thanks Adriano
Ferreira and Yitzchak.
    - Fixed an obscure problem with is_deeply() and
overloading ==
      [rt.cpan.org 20768].  Thanks Sisyphus.

    Test fixes
    - Removed dependency on Text::Soundex [rt.cpan.org
25022]
    - Fixed a 5.5.x failure in fail-more.t
    * Got rid of the annoying sort_bug.t test that revealed
problems with some
      threaded perls.  It was testing the deprecated eq_*
functions and not
      worth the bother.  Now it tests is_deeply(). 
[rt.cpan.org 17791]

    Doc fixes
    - Minor POD mistake in Test::Builder [rt.cpan.org
28869]
    * Test::FAQ has been updated with some more answers.

    Install fixes
    - Fixed the "LICENSE is not a known MakeMaker
parameter name" warning
      on older MakeMakers for real this time.

    Bug Fixes
    * The change to is_fh() in 0.68 broke the case where a
reference to
      a tied filehandle is used for perl 5.6 and back.  This
made the tests
      puke their guts out.

Uh, oh!  This fix causes test failures with DBI and
Math::Random::MT::Auto.  For example, for DBI:

t/05thrclone..............You tried to run a test without a
plan at
t/05thrclone.t line 37.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t/05thrclone.t line
38.
# Looks like your test died before it could output
anything.
dubious
        Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)

I'll fix the tests for MRMA, and work on submitting a patch
for DBI, but there may be lots of other modules that this
affects.  (I'm not saying the fix is bad - just that it may
affect lots of modules.)

BTW, when to you plan to submit a patch for this against
blead?

Was this fixed and how can I get the fix?

Magic p5p fairies usually take care of that.

Tim has a fix for DBI.  I've just poked him to see if he'll
do a quick release.

I hope that isn't a title that sticks.  Bleadperl is updated
to 
Test-Simple-0.71 with change #31907.

And tests now pass with following change.
It takes care of
a/ pushing the right dirs in INC when running in the
perl core test suite
b/ fixes the $VERSION of Dummy.pm. Apparently bleadperl
comes with
another version of Dummy.pm than Test::Simple........ don't
ask me
why...

Change 31911 by rgsstcosmo on 2007/09/19 14:28:28

	Fix failing Test::Simple test

 require_ok('Test::More');

If it is a mechanical fix, ie easy to explain and implement,
and would
take under an hour, I can whip it out, send you the patch,
just send
the details.

Otherwise, I'll keep an eye out for 1.60, no rush really at
all.

One's MakeMaker's, one's Test-Simple's.
