I've been testing 1.617 on our development system and have not encountered any problems as yet. However, I notice a few UNKNOWN smoke reports like the following one (on mac):
http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/ddd9ac12-5074-11e1-823e-1c11842dab9b It appears the archname on some Perls for OSX is "archname=darwin-debug-nothreads" when useithreads=undef and DBI does: $::opt_thread = 1; # thread if we can, use "-nothread" to disable if ($Config{useithreads}) { $::opt_thread = 1; } else { if ($Config{archname} =~ /thread/ && $::opt_thread) { ... die "*** ABORTED.\n"; } $::opt_thread = 0; } Any reason not to change that to exclude "nothread".
