Bug#582915: libconfig-model-perl: FTBFS with Perl 5.12.1: Bizarre copy of ARRAY in sassign

[Niko Tyni]

Package: libconfig-model-perl
Version: 1.202-1
Severity: important
User: debian-perl at lists.debian.org
Usertags: perl-5.12-transition

This package fails to build on amd64 with perl 5.12.1-1 from experimental:

  t/multi_warp_value.t ...... ok
  UNIVERSAL->import is deprecated and will be removed in a future perl at /build/niko-libconfig-model-perl_1.202-1-amd64-7pdWZA/libconfig-model-perl-1.202/blib/lib/Config/Model/ObjTreeScanner.pm line 25
  
  #   Failed test 'fetch_element with unexpected experience'
  #   at t/node.t line 125.
  # expecting: Regexp ((?-xism:Unexpected experience))
  # found: Bizarre copy of ARRAY in sassign at /usr/share/perl/5.12/Carp.pm line 95.
  # Looks like you failed 1 test of 50.

This is probably a bug in Perl itself, see
 http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=52610
but there doesn't seem to be any easy fix, so a workaround is needed
for Config::Model.

I'll clone a bug against perl when I get the BTS ack for this.

FWIW, this reliably shows on the CPAN tester reports too.
