Recommended version of Perl for test framework
I've tried some later versions of Perl (like 5.20 and 5.22) and
I get really strange errors... like byterange.t simply hanging.
I also had some issues on a setup which had Perl 5.16 but with
all CPAN modules upgraded.

Is there some recommended version of Perl to use...

Hmmm... this is weird. The errors and hangs only seem to occur
if Protocol::HTTP2 and AnyEvent are added...

Hmmm Wondering if this is due to:

Test::LeakTrace [build_requires]
Test::TCP [build_requires]

Anyway, this is on OSX, fwiw.

What system are you testing on...?

I'm able to get CentOS6 running, but it fails w/ tests 17 and 18 on h2
and then hangs :(

On OSX, like I said, I can't even get past the byterange*.t tests

This seems dependent on the Macports port(s) of perl...
Using the system perl doesn't seem to have this issue...

Any possibility the Macports ver uses a different compiler?

perl -V

would show the details.

Well, the gccversion is different.

clang-600.0.54 v clang-600.0.39

I doubt that's causing the problem.

In any case, I've built perl by hand, installed it in /opt/perl
to avoid any conflicts, and all is well.
