Hah.  That leads to
http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commitdiff/451f421
in which it's said "What happens is that eval tacks "\n;" on to the end
of the string if it does not already end with a semicolon."

So we could likely hide the cross-version difference in behavior by
adjusting these two test cases to include a semicolon in the eval'd
string.
