CPAN Release Workflow 1.34

7 Aug 2010

I have implemented a workaround for the issues with failing tests for newer perls for version 1.33.

From the Changes file:

- Implemented work-around for RT #53909
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=53909

The issue demonstrated here, which can be observed in perl versions newer
than 5.10.0 seems to be related to a issue mentioned here:

http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=70171

RT #53909 is based on blead perl, in which also a fix has now been
implemented, but we still have issues with a lot of perl releases currently
out there, see:

http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Workflow+1.33

So this work-around seems to fix the issue, since I can no longer replicate
the error. The problem seem to be the clearing of a package scoped variable,
the array @observations in t/SomeObserver.pm
