> Does that testing extend to using the libraries from perl?
Unfortunately not. FreeBSD account, which we use for testing, has badly
compiled C libraries, and doesn't allow to link C++ libraries to C programs.
Perl extension itself compiles fine, but running tests results with some
unresolved externals.
Any help with tests on this field are *very* welcome.
(few hints: compiling perl extension reports one warning, which doesn't
matter and will be solved in next release. If you install sablotron in
some non-system locations (using ./configure --prefix='blahblah'), you
need run 'perl Makefile.PL' with -d switch, which allows to specify the
sablotron directory (perl Makefile.PL -d 'blahblah' in our case), maybe
LD_LIBRARY_PATH tweaking is needed).

Yes. I remember your mails very well, they served as very good starting
point. Sablotron now compiles on free bsd cleanly, sample data are
correctly processed.

I don't know... freebsd support was pure before 0.43.
