6.37_03  Mon Nov 26 14:15:34 PST 2007
    Tests
    - parse_version.t had wrong test count when version.pm isn't installed.
    - Fixed some warnings in the XS module we're using for testing.
    - "our $VERSION" test in parse_version.t was never running
    - Quoting uses of 1.2.3 style versions in parse_version.t to protect
      older perls.

    Portability
    - Moved the minimum required version up to 5.6.0.

    Test Improvements
    - Added a test for a basic XS build.

    Bug Fixes
    - A refactoring in 6.37_01 broke XS compilation.

6.37_01  Sun Nov 25 17:05:53 PST 2007
    Improvements
    - Upgraded the META.yml to version 1.3 of the spec (which really
      doesn't change anything).  Thanks bdfoy.
    - MakeMaker now always includes the required 'author' field in
      the META.yml even if it's undef to comply with the META.yml spec.
    - Updated ExtUtils-Install to latest version (1.44)
    - Unified the version numbers of all modules.

    Test Fixes
    - cd() test on VMS used non-native paths. [bleadperl 31534]
    - Removed uses of "no_plan" in tests to remain compatible with
      old versions of Test::Harness.
    - writemakefile_args.t had the wrong test count if version.pm isn't
      installed.

    Bug Fixes
    - $VERSION detection code would be confused by "sub version"
      [rt.cpan.org 30747]
    - LINKTYPE=static will now be propagated to child builds.
      [bleadperl 31761]

    Portability Fixes
    - Add "dragonfly" to the list of BSDish operating systems
    - BSD detection code would not pick up bsdos or internix
    - Fix detection of shared libperl on NetBSD [bleadperl 31526]
