 > What version of `p5-macosx-file` are you trying to build? I fixed this
 issue in r130542.

 I'm sorry then, I didn't notice the fix (there were too many commits to
 the `perl` ports to check them all). I was merely documenting all the
 failures on the buildbot (see comment:29:ticket:46322), but that was a few
 days before the commit you are quoting.

 Since you were already working with that port and testing it, can you
 please also check compatibility with 5.18 and 5.20 and add those two
 subports?
