Changes for version 6.55_01 - 2009-07-14
- Test Fixes
- The tests got a bit overzealous and removed the LIB environment variable while is necessary for some compilers to work. [rt.cpan.org 47722] (Jan Dubois)
- Another fix for arch_check() on Windows changing how we normalize long and short filenames. [rt.cpan.org 47723] (Jan Dubois)
- New Features
- BUILD_REQUIRES is added, similar to PREREQ_PM but for modules which are necessary to build, but not run, your module. (Alexandr Ciornii)
