Yes they do 5.6.0 and the current perl version

It is, and they all fail to build

I check the build results for the current perl version

for DateTime

failed building DateTime prerequisite DateTime-Locale
aborting build of DateTime: failed prerequisites

Checked results for DateTime-locale

failed building DateTime-Locale prerequisite YAML
aborting build of DateTime-Locale: failed prerequisites

checking YAML and found That is passed !
YAML  0.35  PASS  PASS  PASS  PASS  PASS  PASS  PASS

Hmn! This does not make sence. 

I checked the Module::Build status and it is listed as
fail. (no reason why)

I don't know why Activestate is having problems building
DateTime. I was able to do it.

I also noticed that some of the modules in DateTime use
module-build and others use the MakeMaker method.
Which one should we use? Is there a standard?
