t/40_server.t:
Further flexibility on the test of $srv->url(). This should (finally)
catch any variation of 127.* address and/or host/domain naming that
aliases to "localhost".
lib/RPC/XML/Parser.pm:
t/20_parser.t:
Lingering problem from RT ticket #30354, RPC::XML::Parser did not get
the change committed that included parser-level support for <i8>. Also
added tests for parsing RPC::XML::request objects and all the data-type
objects to the parser test suite (had they been there before, I would
have caught this myself).

lib/RPC/XML.pm:
Forgot to increment $VERSION before the previous commit. Won't show up
in CPAN as an available update otherwise.

t/40_server.t:
Extended the die message when $srv fails to allocate. Some testers are
getting a failure here but I have no idea how or why.
lib/RPC/XML.pm:
Testers-service reports showed that the new i8 type was not auto-boxing
correctly on true 64-bit machines. Turns out I had bogus values for
the maximums and minimums, not just for 8-byte ints but also for plain
4-byte ones as well.
0.61 Mon Sep 15 01:38:44 PDT 2008
t/00_load.t:
Converted to Test::More due to some cpan-testers reports that showed
test 2 failing. Hoping this might provide better feedback if it
continues to fail.
t/40_server.t:
Changed a test for "localhost:$port" in the server URL method to
optionally allow localhost.localdomain, for those systems whose
/etc/hosts cause the former to convert to the latter. Was causing
false failures.
t/40_server.t:
t/50_client.t:
t/60_net_server.t:
Test suites armored against server processes that die as a result of
croak() or other calls within 3rd-party modules. The client and
net_server suites were also converted to Test::More at this time.
t/40_server.t:
Fix for RT ticket #36078, fix the URL testing on the server object to
be less strict. Instead of only allowing "localhost", now also allows
"localhost.localdomain" and does a look-up of "localhost" for the 127.*
IP address and permits that as well. In essence, this extends and
supercedes the second change listed above after more invariant cases
were discovered.
lib/RPC/XML.pm:
t/10_data.t:
Per RT ticket #30354 and specific request from a large agency using
this package, implemented an "i8" type as an extension to the official
XML-RPC specification. Documentation and tests included. THIS SHOULD BE
CONSIDERED EXPERIMENTAL.
t/40_server.t:
t/60_net_server.t:
Some of the work in armoring the test suites against server-death
changed the counts on tests and on call-counts in the system.status
method. Some explicit re-starts didn't help.
