in reply to Changes in Latest Version of CGI::Application (4.02)

I'm the guilty party, and I just got bit by the change, too. Michael Graham mailed me privately to provide additional insight. We'll take care of it ASAP.

It seemed like a minor change... and the whole test suite passed, but there apparently was no test for this changed behavior.

    hmm, and I should be posing as the hoplite for this module but have not doing my job for a while. It seem so much time that the module was even removed from the Phalanx list. I should check the coverage of the module again and improve it if there big holes in the test suit.
      Curiously, Devel::Cover wouldn't have caught this, because all the code was executed already by the test suite. It's only when you override particular methods that the bug is exposed.

      So it would be quite possible to write a test for it, although difficult to detect that the case wasn't covered by a test.
