Hmm. I guess Test::Reporter is only screen scraping the output from  
T::H because there's currently  no better interface.

When I get a moment I'll have a look at exactly what T::R is doing  
(unless anyone else already knows) and figure out what interface it  
needs to the harness and whether we provide that interface currently.
