Maybe, although I'd consider it a bug if it's barfing on a minor version
update since there is no binary or API incompatibility among minor
versions (as long as they're built with the same options of course).
Turns out this is indeed a longstanding bug (and one upstream is likely
to continue ignoring) that PAR::Packer uses the version string as a
proxy for ABI compatibility:

The package is in the hands of Yaakov, so either he's going to provide
an update shortly or you downgrade Perl to 5.22.0 for the moment. If a
new package is made available, I wouldn't mind if the version check was
patched to check the last component for greater-or-equal instead of
equal. Testing for equality makes no sense unless we'd bundle
PAR::Packer with the perl package in Cygwin.
