[tapx-dev] More test issues

Looks like we have another test problem.  

In t/120-harness.t, line 318:

    eval { $harness->runtests( 't/data/catme.1' ) };

This file is not in subversion or in the MANIFEST.

Also, on 5.6.1 on i386-linux, I'm finding regression test failures when
we try to load stuff like t/sample-tests/die:

  use if ($^O eq 'VMS'), vmsish => 'hushed';
  exit 1;  # exit because die() can be noisy

perl -c t/sample-tests/die on 5.6.1:

  Can't locate if.pm in @INC ...

That's not too surprising, but I'm wondering how that ever passed. 
Well, until try this on 5.8.8:

  t/sample-tests/die syntax OK

This test needs to be rewritten to be more robust, but I'm not sure
exactly what it was supposed to be doing.  The following tests are
affected by this problem:

  t/sample-tests/die
  t/sample-tests/die_head_end
  t/sample-tests/die_last_minute
  t/sample-tests/die_unfinished

Cheers,
Ovid
