YAML::Syck and YAML.pm 0.60 breaks compatibility with older versions by
changing the tags that are output for serialized objects.
This was the old way:
--- !perl/Foo::Bar {}
--- !perl/@Baz []
--- !perl/$Quux ""
New way:
--- !!perl/hash:Foo::Bar {}
--- !!perl/array:Baz []
--- !!perl/scalar:Quux ""
* This change was made after discussions with the Python and Ruby
implementers to standardize on this form.
* YAML::Syck was updated at the same time as YAML.pm so that they
serialize objects the same way.
* YAML.pm roundtrips the new format and still parses the old (now
deprecated) format.
* The best strategy is to update to the latest version.
* There are potential problems if you use YAML for RPC and the server
and client versions don't match.
