[Perlunit-users] make test fails

[David S. <sa...@MI...>]

All,

Thank you for the work put into Test::Unit.  I tried yesterday to use
the CPAN module to download and install Test::Unit, and the test harness
failed.  The result is after my signature.  It appears that the test
harness code assumes that TestCase::get_matching_methods will always
return the same methods in the same order, which in turn depends on the
order in which hash table elements are returned, which I believe is
undefined.

It would seem that the easy way out of this would be to sort the result
of get_matching_methods, in order to make it deterministic.  Does this
make sense to anyone else?  Thanks,

	David Saff
