curious markings:

It seems that the 'use Env qw( ... )' line in Base.pm is what's causing
this. perl56delta states that Env.pm has changed to allow this to work
in 5.6.x onwards, while it breaks in 5.005. I don't have a machine
readily available with which to test this, but here's a diff against
Base.pm which should work:

--- Base.pm.orig        Mon Feb 23 21:03:44 2004
+++ Base.pm     Mon Feb 23 21:02:36 2004

 use Carp qw(carp croak);
-use Env qw($PAGER $SHELL $COLUMNS);
+use Env qw(PAGER SHELL COLUMNS);
 use IO::File;
 use File::Basename qw(basename);
 use Term::Size qw(chars);

Unfortunately, this causes t/signature to fail because of a broken
checksum. Here's a patch for that:

With these two patches, it should work with everything from 5.005 to
5.8.3 (which I have installed here, cf. ports/61444 :) ). Thanks for
working on this.
