The Perl 5 test code tries to see if PCRE is installed with: my $has_pcre = Parrot::Test::run_command( $cmd, STDERR => File::Spec->devnull() ) == 0; Apparently on your system, this succeeds, but loading libpcre fails. The test code in t/examples/library.t should probably catch this exception and abort cleanly. -- c
