Such tables would not list every patch in blead. > Is one of those what you'd call 'blead'? > No. You would need to build perl from a checkout of the repo at https://github.com/Perl/perl5 However 5.37.9 contains the apostrophe patch. Unfortunately it does not contain the smartmatch patches. If your module does not use smartmatch or related features you are good. That wasn't my point however, my point was it would be helpful if folks could take the time to build perl against the latest commit in the blead branch on github and then test it against their favourite modules. If anything doesn't build, file a patch with the author of the module and or maybe with us as an issue. You can do this with 5.37.9 if you wish, but it will only validate the apostrophe as a package separator deprecation, not the smartmatch deprecation.
