I am considering dropping support for Perl 5.6 in Devel::Cover.  Whilst
Devel::Cover basically works with Perl 5.6.1 and Perl 5.6.2, there are
many parts which are difficult or impossible to implement, leading to
certain constructs which cannot be covered.

I realise that some people, especially those in a corporate environment
may not be able to simply upgrade.  Until recently I was working
somewhere where /usr/bin/perl was Perl 4.  I just wanted to get opinions
on this move.  If too many people make too many good cases for keeping
5.6 support, I'll see what I can do, but I'm finding that supporting 5.6
is taking a lot of time that I would rather be spending on other things.
