My smoker systems started to report the following failure:

...
Use of uninitialized value in require at t/03_with_par.t line 55.
Use of uninitialized value $INC{"File/ShareDir/PAR.pm"} in pattern match (m//) at t/03_with_par.t line 57.

#   Failed test 'F::SD::PAR most likely loaded from .par as expected.'
#   at t/03_with_par.t line 57.

Statistical analysis suggests that the problem started with PAR 1.012:
