It looks like you are getting failures from "not of expected type" 
errors in both Pari and GMP.  It looks like both of them are not 
respecting inheritance and are using e.g. 'ref($x) eq ...' rather than 
isa().

You should probably put together a minimal test case and run it 
with -MCarp=verbose to get a full backtrace and find out where the 
error is being thrown by which backend.  I see at least the following 
two errors coming from your t/10-ip-address.t and both are going to 
need a deeper backtrace.

 1. "incorrect type in comparison. at .../Math/BigInt/Pari.pm line 206.
 2. "not of type Math::BigInt::GMP at .../Math/BigInt.pm line 833.

If you can't replicate the errors on your system, you can usually ask 
the tester who reported it to get you a backtrace.
