If you need help or want to make a coordinated effort to get patches into multiple modules, that's another avenue. (Patches to toolchain rt.cpan.org queues or pull requests from their repos are fine, too.) But given the chicken and egg situation, you may need to just patch everything in the perl source first and confirm it works. If you do that, then please submit patches separately for each module in the "cpan/" directory so it will be easier for maintainers to take them back upstream. Regards, DavidThread Previous
