ok 1 - message
not ok 2 - diagnostics
not ok 3 - type
not ok 4 - error type
Dubious, test returned 3 (wstat 768, 0x300)
Failed 3/4 subtests

There is a patch on the GH issue.

This bug will become release critical nearer the time of the perl 5.22
migration, expected during the (northern hemisphere) summer.

Cheers,
Dominic.
