--- Comment #10 from Mason James <[email protected]> ---
a little update here...
it turns out that the 'use threads' line was needed for patch to succeed, after
all

the 'use threads' line seems to handle a known bug where Test::Simple generates
the TAP tests out of order, and causes the tests to fail


the good news is that there are some options...

1/ use the Test2::Suite module, which handles parallel tests well...
   https://metacpan.org/pod/Test2::Suite

   the only catch here is that it's new-ish, so we'll need to backport the
module to deb8/jessie too

2/ just allow the 'use threads' line. 
        Because no threads are ever actually created, it should be pretty safe


fyi: i did try using forks.pm too, but sadly got lots of random fails
