All "your" fail reports are written by bingos with "CPANPLUS, version
0.84". This is not only true for the three above but for all reports.
CPANPLUS 0.84 *never* wrote a PASS for Devel-Refcount up to now.

These are written by CPANPLUS::Dist::YACSmoke 0.02 and 0.04 by the
same tester, this time known as chris.

Maybe chris knows something?
