Output_JSON.t fails on current perl release.
Tests in Output_JSON.t assume that items in the generated json string will be
in a consistent order. Internally, though, they are held in a hash, an
unordered container. In perl versions 5.18 and greater the overhaul of of
hashing ensures that hash elements are returned in an unpredictable sequence,
(which was previously the theory). As a result the tests checking the output
should be rewitten not to make assumptions about the order of elements.
