Well, I say that it's a bit of a PITA, but I'll add it to my TODO
list. I recall now that the skip/SKIP thing is what was causing some
CPAN Testers failures for Test::File, so I guess I'l just switch it
over to Test::Tester and that'll solve it, eh? Hopefully it won't be
too awful, but my recollection is that TBT and TT have _completely_
different approaches when it comes to testing, so it won't be trivial
either. So I guess I'm torn between saying "yay for progress!" and
"bummer for my already overstuffed schedule." ;->

Excellent. So I'll leave it on my todo list, just bump it down in priority. ;->
