From: Chris Marshall
Looking at the patch, suggests it is the
result of a Filter::Simple bug that I had to
runtime patch to handle POD terminators
correctly.
Yes, I wondered whether the intermingling of pod and code in the affected
files had something to do with the problem.
Btw, the 3 attached (very simplistic) patches allow _006 to build fine on
all my 32-bit and 64-bit perls - for both MinGW and MS compilers.
I'm going to bump up the minimum
version for Filter::Simple to 0.86 since that
is what I have on my working system. Is
that the version you have on the older platforms
with problems?
I have 0.88 throughout - even on the older perls that were giving the
problems prior to applying the attached patches, I was using 0.88.
In a nutshell, here are the 3 problems I faced. (I doubt that they are
specific to Windows.)
~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 1:
~~~~~~~~~~~
Any of my _006 build that built in PDL::Graphics::PGPLOT were unable to load
the module because of the following syntax errors:

This meant that _006 couldn't even be built on those older perls.

On perls older than 5.14.0, PDL::Transform could not be loaded because of

I'll send the perl-V outputs in a separate (offlist) post shortly.
