The  \*(L"retry\*(R" configuration can also be hash ref w/ the optional keys:
.IP "num_of_passes" 4
.IX Item "num_of_passes"
This number corresponds to the the array ref version’s “first item”. Defaults to 3.
.IP "passes_config" 4
.IX Item "passes_config"
This array ref corresponds to the the array ref version’s “additional arguments”. Defaults to [1,2].
