BTW, since you're about to push an alpha release...

Did we decide about that yet? :)  Is the priority bumping of the
MakeMaker bug an implicit death sentence for Perl 5.6 support, or do we

See my concerns about carrying around old baggage and a need to support
Perl 5.6 for important back-ports until the end of the 3.4 live-time, if
we miss this opportunity.
