Changes for version 0.14

  • Removed dependency on load.pm: it really doesn't make sense in a forked environment: I don't know what I was thinking in that respect.
  • Added dependency on IO::Socket 1.18: we do need auto-flushing sockets (which seems to be pretty standard nowadays, but just to make sure).
  • Fixed problem with large values / structures being passed with some help from Jan-Pieter Cornet at the Amsterdam PM Meeting. Spotted by Paul Golds. Added test for it.
