Comment (by ken@…):

 OK, I found another recent system and installed TeX on that from-source.
 I've now revised my build order for the perl modules.  With the following
 build order, all the test suites for the modules except biblatex-biber-1.8
 pass. For biblatex-biber itself, I now assume that the developer(s) do(es)
 not run the tests, or perhaps has a lot more test-related dependencies
 than are mentioned, or else runs them on an old system. Because the 1.9
 tests show an error (missing use of a module for File::Slurp::_read or
 something like that - there is a patch in debian) which is also seen at
 runtime, I guess he/they do not run them.


 {{{
 Build order:
 libwww-perl is in BLFS:
 Encode-Locale
 URI
 HTML-Tagset
 HTTP-Date
 IO-HTML
 LWP-Media-Types
 HTML-Parser
 HTTP-Message
 HTML-Form
 HTTP-Cookies
 Net-HTTP
 WWW-RobotRules
 HTTP-Daemon
 File-Listing
 libwww-perl

 for LWP-Protocol-https hich is also in BLFS (openssl is required)
 Net-SSLeay
 IO-Socket-SSL
 Mozilla-CA
 LWP-Protocol-https

 The remainder are in ASCII order for top-level deps,
 with unexpected requirements added at the end.

 for Business-ISBN :
 Business-ISBN-Data
 Business-ISBN

 for Business-ISMN :
 Tie-Cycle
 Business-ISMN

 Business-ISSN comes here

 for Data-Compare / or for File-Find-Rule
 Number-Compare
 Text-Glob
 File-Find-Rule
 Data-Compare

 the next six are all top-level deps
 Date-Simple
 Encode-EUCJPASCII
 Encode-JIS2K
 Encode-HanExtra
 File-Slurp
 IPC-Run3

 List-AllUtils requires Test-Warnings and List-MoreUtils for its testsuite
 Test-Warnings
 List-MoreUtils
 List-AllUtils

 Log-Log4perlcomes here
 Regexp-Common comes here

 Text-BibTeX requires Config-AutoConf which requires Capture-Tiny for its
 testsuite,
  and ExtUtils-LibBuilder
 Capture-Tiny
 Config-AutoConf
 ExtUtils-LibBuilder
 Text-BibTeX

 (will continue later!)
