My brain obviously wasn't working too well at 2:32am! Thanks everyone for the obvious correction!

DateTime::Format::Duration is back on track (after upgrading DateTime.pm once I noticed subtractions were broke) and should be released in the next couple of days. Basically I'm making the normalisation a LOT faster.
