perl 5.40.1 build: Possibly XML::XML2JSON test t/XML-XML2JSON.t will fail

[twata1]

Hello,

I split my issue with #231 .

Sample fail report:
http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/d295c9d6-6eb8-1014-8029-cbde69c54bed

That test passes in perl 5.40.0 build .

Thank you,

I see the same errors locally but the final result is a pass.

FWIW, the makefile needed to be generated with perl -I. Makefile.PL.

The results are more-or-less the same with SP 5.40.0.

Although repeatedly calling gmake test several times can trigger the fail on some runs. Tested with SP 5.40.0.1, 5.40.1.1 and 5.32.1.1.

This is perhaps the same as this RT ticket from 2014, which is related to hash randomisation: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=94335

CPAN testers has plenty of red on it, across multiple operating systems, starting from perl 5.18. A check of a recent one for linux shows the same errors.

I think this can be closed as "not strawberry-related". I'll do so in a few days, but feel free to close it yourself.

Thanks for the report, though.
