Apparently not.  The 5.9.5 failure seems to be some sort of 5.9.5 issue 
0.51 was failing t/compat/test-harness-compat.t in exactly the same 
way.

The 5.6.2 one appears to be a new bug relating to open '>&'

http://search.cpan.org/~rgarcia/perl-5.6.2/pod/perlopentut.pod#Re-Opening_Files_(dups)
http://search.cpan.org/~rgarcia/perl-5.6.2/pod/perlfunc.pod#open

The only possible issue I see there is 

  "Duping file handles is not yet supported for 3-argument open()."

But we're not doing the 3-arg open and otherwise it looks mostly the 
same as 5.8.8.  Puzzling.

But as soon as you hear the Doppler shift dropping in pitch, you know
that they're probably going to miss your house, because if they were on
a collision course with your house, the pitch would stay the same until
impact. As I said, that one's subtle.
