BTW, my Salesforce colleagues were complaining to me that this stuff
doesn't work at all on older Perl versions; apparently IPC::Run has
changed significantly since Perl 5.8 or so. Can we do anything about
that?
They were also not too happy that the checks get skipped if IPC::Run isn't
installed (as it is not on stock RHEL, for instance). It'd be better if
we could avoid depending on stuff that isn't in a pretty-vanilla Perl
installation.
