Catalyst is tested and works just fine with 5.8.3. Reflect in requirements.

Files=29, Tests=2997, 29 wallclock secs ( 0.46 usr  0.02 sys + 28.44 cusr  0.64 csys = 29.56 CPU)
(with aggregated tests)

Files=144, Tests=2946, 218 wallclock secs ( 0.82 usr  0.24 sys + 212.72 cusr  4.20 csys = 217.98 CPU)
(without aggregation)

Note - this was fully tested with a modified LWP as per RT#74190.

Here is a dump of my requirement list:

rabbit@Thesaurus:~/devel/cat_runtime/Catalyst-Runtime-5.90008$ perl -v

This is perl, v5.8.3 built for i686-linux-thread-multi
