I am seeing test failures for my distribution Text::Aligner under perl 5.13 that I can't reproduce on my machine. Reports from various platforms are all very similar to this (latest) one
http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/7209297 The same 3 of 503 tests fail in the same way in all reported cases. When I run the tests under bleadperl on my machine (directly, through prove, through make test), I am unable to reproduce these failures, everything passes. The failing tests do nothing I would call extraordinary. Any thoughts would be welcome.
