 Yes, I'll give it a try either this evening or tommorrow and see how it
 fares.

 consider the few remaining modules that miss support for 5.20 to be
 showstoppers.

 This is OT for this ticket but I think we need to stabilize at the
 perl5.16 level before trying to move on.

 Some issues remaining:

   * fix issues that restrict some ports to perl5.16 such as this one
   * remove 5.8-5.14 support/variants in perl5
   * remove perl5.8 through perl5.14, now largely useless without extension
 module support.

 Perhaps a good point to switch would be when 5.22 is released. Is there a
 target release date?
