With perl 5.8.9 to perl 5.14.4 I'm seeing test failures in t/source_handler.t. This probably affects some other Ye Olde Perles with old versions of some toolchain modules:

t/source_handler.t ..............
Dubious, test returned 4 (wstat 1024, 0x400)
Failed 4/79 subtests
(less 4 skipped subtests: 71 okay)
It seems that even though t/source_tests/source_args.sh has the execute bit set in the tarball, something in the old toolchain is removing it:

You may want to twiddle the test to explicitly turn the execute bit on in this case.
