Changes for version 1.9738 - 2016-06-26

  • fix the dates in the Changes, it's not July yet
  • in cygwin, drop the utime.t expected timestamp resolution
  • documented for utime that the actual timestamp resolution depends on the operating system and the filesystem, just like for stat
  • looks like in gnukfreebsd 10.1 neither futimens or utimensat work even though they exist, skipping utime tests there for now
  • demodernize the Test::More use in utime.t (no subtest) to better support older Perl installations
  • for all the tests, drop the Test::More 0.82 requirement, the only "modern" thing used is the note routine which can be replaced with print("# ...\n") (or printf), with this works back at least with Test::More 0.54 (perl 5.8.7)
