I just wanted to note, that the test suite now uses the perl module

I had assumed this would be available everywhere in a base perl installation
and therefore safe to use, especially since nobody complained until now.
Memoize just improves test performance and isn't critical, so if it's going to
cause issues it could be made optional. Are there any other perl distributions
that relegate it to a separate package?
As far as I could see, it seems to be mostly the RHEL, Fedora and
similar distributions. And for them it is easy to install. So maybe a
hint in the test suite explanations wouold be nice, but I don't see the
need to make it optional.
Thanks and regards,
Rainer
