That was mostly around a Firebird test going FUBAR on 5.10.
Eventually, DBD::Firebird just plain failed to install, so that whole
incident seemed like an outside problem.

Anyway, good work; looks like a lot of work went into this.  Glad to
know that more than just Frew and I are excited about doing stuff with
Travis.

Why this line?  Travis specifically built a CPAN mirror to cut down on
bandwidth usage.

???  Don't you already have inc/ from the git clone?  Why wget?
