The ugly 'HASH' output is because we're no longer overloading "". 
You'll have to call to_string() on the BlastResult object to get

This is a bug in either the parsing code and/or GenericHit. I get the 
same trouble parsing /t/data/blast.report in the Bioperl distribution. 
Was the report you were parsing a TBLASTN? Could you file a bug report 
on this at http://bugzilla.bioperl.org/ ? Thanks.
