Turns out, the more recent versions of Perl (starting with 5.16.4 or maybe even earlier) have changed the way they treat the error variable $!. This special can not be assigned any arbitrary error text any more, now they want it to be a proper integer OS error code. So all the Triceps error reporting through $! breaks on the newer versions of Perl. The code still works, except that the text of the errors can not be extracted,
Well, looks like it's about time to bite the bullet and finally convert everything to the newer and better error reporting with confessions.
This started as my thoughts on the field of Complex Event Processing, mostly about my OpenSource project Triceps. But now it's about all kinds of software-related things.

Triceps now on CPAN, release 1.0.1
I've finally got around to upload Triceps to CPAN. In process I've found that I didn't set the version for 1.0.0 right in the Perl files, so I've had to fix that. The result is the release 1.0.1.
There are no other changes, I didn't even backport the stuff for the easier configuration on the older GCC compilers.
