Just to let you know I've had a look at some of test failures reported at http://perl.develop-help.com/?b=smoke-me/cpan61577 and possibly fixed them (there seemed to be a problem in the test which duplicated one of the test results). Results should hopefully appear at http://perl.develop-help.com/?b=smoke-me/cpan61577-dom at some point. Assuming that the tests then start passing on Linux, we'll then be in a position to judge how the patch performs across the range of platforms supported by that smoking infrastructure, and review whether any more changes (such as test skips) are needed before filing a bug on rt.perl.org for review.
