- Test qw compatibility bug in older perl versions fixed:
From the 5.6 perldelta:
The qw// operator is now evaluated at compile time into a true
list instead of being replaced with a run time call to split().
This removes the confusing misbehavior of qw// in scalar context,
which had inherited that behavior from split().
To keep the module compatible with older version of perl the test was
changed to explicitly return a list and thus circumvent this limitation
of qw in older versions of perl.
Thanks to nothingmuch@woobling.org for having multiple perl versions in
the cpan testers results to make finding the compatibility problem possible.
