The last time I ran them was for 5.005_03, according to google. Back then,
it took about 28 hours for make and make test to run, and only two tests
failed (one in io/pipe, which wasn't allowing enough time for extremely
slow computers, and one in lib/complex, which I don't remember being
completely solved).
If I remember to bring some disks to work (mmm, lovely sneakernet), I'll
have a go with the latest bleadperl, but it'll probably take the whole
weekend, what with all the stuff Jarkko's stuffed in.
