The following test fails with perl 5.14.2 and B::C 1.42 on x86_64/
Ubuntu 12.04.

use Getopt::Long::Descriptive;

my ($opt, $usage) = describe_options(

  [ 'help',       "print usage message and exit" ],
);  

Yes, this fails to work in 1.42 but works in git master. 

But the latest git code is still unstable.
