A recent update to Dancer apparently introduced a requirement for the
'mro' module, which is a Perl 5.10+ thing according to:
http://search.cpan.org/~rjbs/perl-5.20.0/ext/mro/mro.pm
I hope this can be fixed. One of the key reasons I chose Dancer is that
it still worked on Perl 5.8, which is what RHEL 5 shipped with, which
will still be in support for years: http://goo.gl/gUzmww
It's too early to be dropping Perl 5.8, IMHO. Yes, I know, Modern Perl,
12 years old, yadda yadda. Perl 5.8 was the current version for over 5
years, so it got itself into a *lot* of places before 5.10 finally came
around to displace it.
