Self-tests fail via cpanm when installing on Perl 5.8.8 (CentOS 5)

The following complaints prevent Text::Xslate from installing via cpanm on CentOS 5 unless you say --force:
t/900_bugs/039_issue96.t ........................ ok
"remove_tree" is not exported by the File::Path module
Can't continue after import errors at t/900_bugs/040_issue95.t line 6.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t/900_bugs/040_issue95.t line 6.
t/900_bugs/040_issue95.t ........................
Dubious, test returned 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)
No subtests run
t/900_bugs/041_cachedir_other_process.t ......... ok
Text::Xslate: Iterating data must be an ARRAY reference, not 3 (<string>:2) at t

It appears to run correctly if you force the install, and prior versions have been working for us flawlessly on CentOS 5 for over a year now.
We'd rather not roll back to a prior version of Text::Xslate to get around this. It would be better if the distribution maintained compatibility with Perl 5.8 for a white longer, since it will still be in use for some time yet, and not just by us. RHEL 5 (which ships Perl 5.8.8) will still be in mainstream support for another year and a half. There are other pressures keeping Perl 5.8 relevant, too.
I have fixed this issue. Please wait next release.
I have release version 3.3.7. Please check it. And thanks for reporting.
Thanks! I've installed the new version successfully on CentOS 5, Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (also uses Perl 5.8.8), OS X Yosemite, Ubuntu LTS 14.04, and CentOS 7.
