Could you folks help me figure out the source of this failure:

Normally I would suggest that you ask the tester to send you the output
of running 'prove -vb' on a couple of the failing test files.
However, that wouldn't reveal very much in this case, because you
haven't provided labels (or 'names', or 'explanations', or whatever
they're calling them these days) which could tell us at a glance what
the test is supposed to do.
You've made use of some of Test::More's features -- the plan and the
SKIP block -- but you should consider using test labels as well. In
addition, a test like this:
ok($s2->id() eq $sid);
is perhaps better re-written like this:
is($sw->id(), $sid, "explanation of what this equality means");
