There are 12 test cases failing 32bit and 3 for 64bit so I guess it's time now.

When you do update perl to 5.16+, please mark it as test: in order to 
give us time to rebuild everything first before marking it stable.

 Are you planning a perl update in the near future?  I'm starting to work on
 TeX Live 2014, and it would be nice to be able to include the current
 version of biber (and biblatex).  With perl-5.14, I have to ship biber-1.5.
 Upstream biber is now three releases later, at 1.8.
