NAME

       Canary::Stability - canary to check perl compatibility for schmorp's modules

SYNOPSIS

        # in Makefile.PL
        use Canary::Stability DISTNAME => 2001, MINIMUM_PERL_VERSION;

DESCRIPTION

       This module is used by Schmorp's modules during configuration stage to test the installed
       perl for compatibility with his modules.

       It's not, at this stage, meant as a tool for other module authors, although in principle
       nothing prevents them from subscribing to the same ideas.

       See the Makefile.PL in Coro or AnyEvent for usage examples.
