in thread Strange CPANTS report

Googling for that phrase I got a lot of entries on many different systems, few or none of them Perl-related. So I think it's just a message that prints out as part of the FAIL and doesn't say anything in particular about your problem.

And this is supported by the fact that the phrase is present in all my FAIL reports from imacat's Linux box. Example: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/254139. In my case, this message had nothing to do with the problems in my test suite; those lay in the test suite itself. My hunch is that it's the same for you.

    I looked at the testers report. Most of the Chinese error messages are about 'inappropriate iotcl for the device' but the first is about 'file or directory not found'. That is, not all the Chinese messages are the same. If the iotcl message comes with all of imacat's FAILS, then perhaps the problem with this particular test is a missing file.
