Changes for version 0.75 - 2008-02-23

  • Incompatibilities
  • The minimum version is now 5.6.0.
  • Bug fixes
  • Turns out require_ok() had the same bug as use_ok() in a BEGIN block.
  • ok() was not honoring exported_to() when looking for $TODO as it should be.
  • Test fixes
  • is_deeply_with_threads.t will not run unless AUTHOR_TESTING is set. This is because it tickles intermittent threading bugs in many perls and causes a lot of bug reports about which I can do nothing.
  • Misc
  • Ran through perlcritic and did some cleaning.
