In that case, makes much more sense to add the footnote and live with that.
Changing $^O would be wrong as it is dependent on the value of something
defined by the OS maintainer.
At least for now it is clear that I need to maintain "darwin" as a OS that
supports Archive-Tar-Wrapper. But others

No, that's the value that's in use today in `uname -s` on OSX, as I
showed in my earlier reply.

He's saying that the CPAN-testers website should say "Mac OS X" instead
of "Darwin", and ...
It seems also that the
`perldoc perlport` is clear that $Config{archname} and $^O are derived
from uname.
$ uname -s
Darwin
I think it would be more confusing to make these values inconsistent.
Perhaps cpantesters could add a footnote somewhere letting people know
that 'darwin' means mac os systems for those who
I mean, the perl gave "darwin", but it should mean "macosx" or something like
that.
We could suggest (I guess) to change that on the interpreter or to update the
matrix at matrix.cpantesters.org. I think the later should be easier since
"darwin" => "macosx" anyway.
