Comment:

 I've updated the port to include support for perl5.20 in r133136 after
 applying two patches suggested upstream. (See
 [https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=88180 CPAN #88180] and
 [https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=88182 CPAN #88182]).

 The first patch fixes a legitimate error in the C code when running on
 perl5.20 and the second is a patch to fix the test itself.  The patches
 are applied only for perl > 5.18 since they work correctly for the earlier
 versions.

 These patches allow all subtests but one (193/194) to complete
 successfully and the remaining test appears to likely be one that is
 inappropriate due to design changes introduced in perl5.20.  See
 [https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=122322 CPAN #122322] for
 the upstream discussion on the subject.

 Closing the ticket since I believe the remaining failure seems to be one
 of testing methodology not actual functionality of the module itself.
