[html-formfu] Is mro.pm really required?

[Charlie Garrison]

Good morning,

The change notes for 0.70 say:

     - Change from Class::C3 to mro, to get built-in support in 
perl >= 5.9

Does that mean that HTML::FormFu is no longer compatible with 
perl 5.8?

When installing the new HTML::FormFu, all tests fail since mro 
isn't installed. And I can't find mro on cpan as a separate 
package, I can only find it as part of perl core.

Can I run `make test` without mro.pm installed? Or do I need to 
just stay with v0.06?

The MRO::Compat pod says:

     It is a harmless no-op to use this module on 5.9.5+. That 
is to say, code which properly uses MRO::Compat will work 
unmodified on both older Perls and 5.9.5+.

Can HTML::FormFu use MRO::Compat instead of mro?
