All the Perl that's Practical to Extract and Report

Repeat after me: Its a BUG!! not a feature

RARRR!!! The only thing that pisses me off more than unreported bugs is people who find bugs and then ASSUME ITS A NEW FEATURE!!

- hacked Foo/Bar.pm to work with perl 5.6.1 (ExtUtils::Liblist has changed although its documentation has not)

The module name as been changed to protect the TARGET OF MY WRATH!

Even worse, the "hack" dives into private, internal MakeMaker classes.

As icing on the cake, the "hack" decides which to do based on the version of Perl not the version of MakeMaker. So upgrading MakeMaker does not help.

I hate this job.

Bug as feature

Correction. URI with unescaped spaces.
As a long time user of Netscape this
has been a thorn in my side for sometime.
