This package fails to build with perl 5.14, currently in experimental:

#   Failed test 'glob 1'
#   at t/01_normal.t line 26.
#          got: '(?^u:^.*\.pl$)'
#     expected: '(?-xism:^.*\.pl$)'

#   Failed test 'glob 2'
#   at t/01_normal.t line 26.
#          got: '(?^u:^.*\.h\+\+$)'
#     expected: '(?-xism:^.*\.h\+\+$)'

#   Failed test 'glob 3'
#   at t/01_normal.t line 26.
#          got: '(?^u:^.*\.[tar]\..*$)'
#     expected: '(?-xism:^.*\.[tar]\..*$)'

#   Failed test 'glob 4'
#   at t/01_normal.t line 26.
#          got: '(?^u:^.*\..?$)'
#     expected: '(?-xism:^.*\..?$)'
# Looks like you failed 4 tests of 30.
t/01_normal.t ...... 
Dubious, test returned 4 (wstat 1024, 0x400)
Failed 4/30 subtests
