I tried "sudo cpan install FFI::Platypus" against macOS Sonoma's
base-system perl. It seemed to compile all right, but a nontrivial
fraction of its self-tests fail:
Files=72, Tests=296, 7 wallclock secs ( 0.10 usr 0.07 sys + 4.96 cusr 1.34 csys = 6.47 CPU)
Result: FAIL
Failed 33/72 test programs. 87/296 subtests failed.
make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 3
PLICEASE/FFI-Platypus-2.08.tar.gz
/usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK
No energy for digging deeper tonight.
