To All Eager PDL Developers,

Here is a quick analysis of the PDL-2.4.3_01 build failures
as reported by CPAN Testers.  Basically, perl 5.6 works
but 5.8 and 5.10 fail.  Darwin has issues with the autoload
test and NetBSD has broken uudecod options set.

*BUT*

inlinepdlpp is the Gorilla problem.  All OSes tested with
perls 5.8.x or 5.10.0 fail on this one!  Debugging help
welcomed.  I have never seen an error with autoload or
inlinepdlpp on cygwin.  I'll try a clean test tonight.

By perl version:

   perl 5.6.2:  all PASS (Darwin, Linux, NetBSD)
   perl 5.8.x:  all FAIL (Darwin, Linux, NetBSD)
   perl 5.10.0: all FAIL (Darwin, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris)


By failed test name:

  t/autoload ...      failed 1/2 subtests, looks like #2,
                           (Darwin)

  t/dumper ...       bad flags given to uudecode on flavors of *BSD
                           This was a 2.4.3 bug that I thought had been put
                            into the cvs.  I'll check this one out.
                           (NetBSD)

  t/inlinepdlpp ... Error. You have specified 'Pdlpp' as an Inline 
programming language.
                          There was a t/inlinepdlpp error for almost all 
FAILs.  The above
                          message was reported for >3/4 of them.
                          (Darwin, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Linux, Solaris)
