It might be worth running Perl::MinimumVersion over the codebase real quick.

It has all the obvious stuff coded into it (like warnings and qr//) already.

Also, for purposes of backwards compatability, I'm concerned about qr// and $code->(). When were those first introduced in Perl? I don't want someone using really old versions to not be able to use this code.

qr// was introduced in 5.6.  $code->() has been in there as long as I know.  "use 
warnings" is 5.6.

To give you an idea, the Test-Simple distribution has been broken on 5.5.3 for 
a few releases now (Test::Builder::Tester uses qr//) and I've gotten a grand 
total of one bug report about it.
