Won't install on 5.8.9 about devel-chitin

This is probably why we had to take it off the list of perls tested by TravisCI

a 'make install' with all the other prereqs works fine

Turns out one of the dzil Git modules requires 5.10, so removing 'experimental' won't completely solve the problem.

Maybe try a different "install:" procedure in .travix.yml. We're using dzil to generate the list of prerequisites and install them. I suspect that not all the dzil authordeps are needed to generate this list. Try only installing what's needed to get 'dzil listdeps' working.

There are multiple issues going on here.

Tried using an older Dist::Zilla (The last of the 5.* series so it would install on 5.8.9), but then I couldn't get TravisCI to test with 5.8.9. Just specifying "5.8" in the test matrix means "5.8.8". But then even that old version of Dist::Zilla wouldn't work on 5.8.8.

Tried using the travis-perl helpers to get 5.8.9 installed. It wasn't available as one of the pre-built images and it didn't build it from source.

This might be doable if there was a separate installation procedure for 5.8.9 that included building perl from source and managing prerequisites by hand. I don't think it's worth it. I'll just keep testing 5.8.9 locally.

Actually got this working via #52
