Dear William R Ward,
    
This is a computer-generated report for Number-Format-1.60
on perl 5.10.0, created by CPAN-Reporter-1.1601. 

Thank you for uploading your work to CPAN.  However, there was a problem
testing your distribution.

If you think this report is invalid, please consult the CPAN Testers Wiki
for suggestions on how to avoid getting FAIL reports for missing library
or binary dependencies, unsupported operating systems, and so on:

TESTER COMMENTS

Additional comments from tester: 

My locale.5 page has...

       int_curr_symbol
              followed  by  the  international currency symbol. This must be a
              4-character string containing the international currency  symbol
              as  defined by the ISO 4217 standard (three characters) followed
              by a separator.

... which is where the problem lies. POSIX->localeconv() is returning an
int_curr_symbol of three letters and a space. Since Number::Format seems to
rely on that space not being there, the WorksForMe fix is something like...
