Yes - sorry about that. I think a week ago I said that I'd report more
on recent snapshots and I've been sidetracked by many things.
Here is the tail end of my run of "mmk test" while attempting to
build ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.10_06 against an installed
perl 5.8.1 "MAINT19040":

!Check if the latest snapshots from CPAN manipulate perllocal correctly,
!please.
I'm hesitant to install ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.10_06 into
that particular perl 5.8.1 root hence I'll have to build
another PERL_ROOT and test perllocal.pod against that
other root.
