I'm all for dropping support of 5.5. Move up to 5.8.
For a pure Perl module (I don't even think any of our dependencies
require XS), if we can maintain compatibility without too much
trouble, I think we should.
There were things added after 5.5 such as easy lexical filehandles [
open(my $fh, $filename) ] that I just wouldn't want to give up now.
What I don't want to do is have us all have to maintain an old 5.6
install just to test it there before every release.
