Now the "Randal r-difference" should be down to Text::Soundex, and no,
that one's not gonna get "fixed"...
Known RC5-stoppers:
- Schwern has two items: one MakeMaker issue, one Test::More issue.
- Sean Burke will after all have =encoding changes for perlpod and
perlpodspec now that he cracked the Pod::Simple nut
- cygwin tests barfing because of evil pw_comment returned by getpwent():
what the <beep/> did happen and when and how do we fix it?
- the mbi_rand.t bug would be nice to solve; Tels asked for help in:
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2003-09/msg00160.html
- the "vendor pickups" might turn up something useful

The other half of #20930 should be still good.
(The fields.pm from the base 2.01 not integrated, though,
because otherwise fields.t and t/lib/warnings/doio will
start emitting "Pseudo-hashes are deprecated" warnings)
