Shlomi thanks for CC-ing me though I am also on the perldl list I am
just too busy with many other things I have been doing.

Nope.
http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Wx-Perl-ProcessStream+0.27
seems to indicate that it can pass its tests though that report does not
distinguish between the various versions of Mac OSX.

I don't think that version numbers will matter. So far we were sticking to the
$VERSION += 0.01;
scheme regardless of importance of release.

We know that Mac is a blind spot for us but the only way out from that as I
can see is to get some Mac users start helping packaging.
I've heard that the using pkgsrc
http://padre.perlide.org/trac/wiki/Download#NetBSDpkgsrc
should also work but I have not tried it.

Padre already has some level of support for all of these languages in the forms
of plugins. I hope people with some tuits on their hand will improve
these further.
