I believe that very old perls don't understand X.Y.Z versions (you
actually have 5.6.1 in Makefile.PL). Changing it to 5.006001 will, I

n it. That is that when running under CPAN.pm or

asks can't be seen until after the user has answered them. The simple
fix is to delete the obfuscated code and to switch to using
ExtUtils::MakeMaker, and use
0.something for years - Test::More
being an obvious example.

cpan/build/Test-Group-0.06/blib/lib/Test/Group.pm line 640.
and so on. If you would like temporary access to a machine with 5.6.2
installed so you can work on that, I can
so nothing notices that they're there.
So I've CCed Schwern on this. Whether it's a bug or just that my test
rig is a bit perverse I dunno :-)
Anyway, I'd already noticed this for Test::Simple, and deleted the old
version by hand. I've now done the same for the old Test

use constant C2 => 'C2';

If it would help, I can give you a temporary account with perl 5.6.2
