Strange.  I have some other email addresses but am traveling at the
moment and can't get to them.  I guess use the list for now.

Ignore the test problem and install it.  Everything but XML should
work.  If you need XML, change the line in AnyData::Storage::File that
sets the constant for USE_FLOCK and change it to 0.  This will mean that
file locking won't work for you so you'll either have to do it manually
or wait for the next release.

If you still have problems after my suggestion, let me know.
