I have a module that has "use 5.008" because its never been tested (by

not so much that Im going to load up earlier versions.
Are there test systems available to facilitate this sort of thing?
Another quick and easy test is the Perl::MinimumVersion module -- it
uses PPI to scan your code for syntax that isn't backwards compatible.
That isn't a guarantee of success, but it certainly helps speed up
the process.
