The race condition code is annoying but I think will 'fail safe" if the race can't be won. Of course, I wrote it, so getting the opinions of others is probably a good idea. TTDT is all core-deps, but some of them might require XS ( Not sure > what Cwd requires ). > > I'm not sure what your concern is since they are all core and there is no version requirement for the XS bits. The only versioned dependency is File::Path 2.01 (for the "keep_root" option) and that only needs to be upgraded on 5.8 perls. TTDT tests well back to 5.8.1: http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Test-TempDir-Tiny+0.004. So... XS concern is an XY problem? :-) David -- David Golden <[email protected]> Twitter/IRC: @xdg
