Trying to run the perl thing by hand, though, gives me this: Can't locate Test/More.pm in @INC (@INC contains: ...) which is presumably the problem. It looks like it is assuming I have the Test::More perl libs, which I presumably don't have, don't have any clue where they are, nor really any interest in installing. Wouldn't it be a lot more polite to just not run the test when the Test::More stuff doesn't exist? Rather than failing the testsuite? From a quick "git grep", this test is the only one that uses Test::More.. Linus
