Before we close this ticket, we ought to find out why these are failing
and see, in each case, whether perl or the module needs tweaking:


ILYAZ/modules/Audio-FindChunks-2.00.tar.gz
ATHOMASON/Log-Syslog-Fast-0.61.tar.gz
NI-S/Math-Rand48-1.00.tar.gz
MSCHILLI/Process-MaxSize-0.03.tar.gz
GRIAN/Storable-AMF-1.00.tar.gz
SHURIKO/String-Simrank-0.079.tar.gz
LEONT/SysV-SharedMem-0.008.tar.gz
SISYPHUS/Math-GMPz-0.37.tar.gz
SISYPHUS/Math-GMPf-0.35.tar.gz
SISYPHUS/Math-GMPq-0.35.tar.gz
KULP/PHP-Serialization-XS-0.06.tar.gz

Those are distributions that either fail on bleadperl or require C
libraries I don’t have installed (so I can’t easily check whether they
are fixed).

And I need to look into this one:

POSIX-pselect-0.03 - tests pass anyway; probably still broken
