On my valgrind test setup, this never worked (i.e., fails and bisects
to this commit).

Oddly, I am seeing this error message from the second test (second in
t7006, not in this patch):

  expecting success: 
          rm -f stdout_is_tty ||
          cleanup_fail &&

          if test -t 1
          then
                  >stdout_is_tty
          elif
                  test_have_prereq PERL &&
                  "$PERL_PATH" "$TEST_DIRECTORY"/t7006/test-terminal.perl \
                          sh -c "test -t 1"
          then
                  >test_terminal_works
          fi

  Can't locate IO/Pty.pm in @INC (@INC contains: <snip>) at /local/home/trast/git/t/t7006/test-terminal.perl line 4.
  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /local/home/trast/git/t/t7006/test-terminal.perl line 4.
  ok 2 - set up terminal for tests

Which raises a few questions: Why was this never an issue before?  Am
I supposed to have IO::Pty with a perl install (it's a perl 5.8.8) or
does the test need a prerequisite other than HAVE_PERL?4
