      - update dist.ini to require Test::Deeply on if perl >= 5.12
      - module is tested down to 5.10.1 (cpanm --notest), though some
        prereqs may technically have higher perl requirments, please
        let oodler@cpan.org know if this causes problems for you

0.2.7

    - corrected OMP_SCHEDULE parsing and stopped modifying OMP_SCHEDULE
      while applying it to the OpenMP runtime
    - corrected OMP_DYNAMIC and OMP_NESTED handling, including invalid
      pointer-to-integer calls previously tolerated by some compilers
    - made threaded string conversion helpers avoid Perl API and allocator
      access from OpenMP worker threads
    - made OMP_DEFAULT_DEVICE tests respect the target devices actually
      available from the OpenMP runtime
    - centralized platform/runtime-specific test accommodations for easier
      maintenance
    - expanded CI coverage across Perl versions, GCC versions, Strawberry
      Perl, and Apple Clang/libomp
