Great.

Yes, they should be changed to "requires SQL::Statement module".

Also cpantesters is reporting some failures relating to the DBM modules:

For example, these two:
    http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/ce8c15e4-601c-11e1-8e85-838032b1b899
    http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/b684f8b6-5ffa-11e1-9bda-bf61d4dc8887
both fail with:

DBD::DBM::db selectall_arrayref failed: Cannot open /home/njh/.local/share/.cpan/build/DBI-1.618-WGnXIY/fred.lck: No such file or directory (2) at /home/njh/.local/share/.cpan/build/DBI-1.618-WGnXIY/blib/lib/DBD/File.pm line 730 at /home/njh/.local/share/.cpan/build/DBI-1.618-WGnXIY/blib/lib/DBI/DBD/SqlEngine.pm line 795 [for Statement "select * from Fred"] at ./t/51dbm_file.t line 122.
Compilation failed in require at t/zvn_51dbm_file.t line 4.

This one is different, but also DBM/DBD::File related:
http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/01b4e958-6024-11e1-8e85-838032b1b899
