Test::Harness Notes

I'm about to check in my Test::Harness work. It's clearly horribly
broken when you run the test suite, but all tests pass.  I hope to work
on that today.

It's also about twice as slow as it should be, but I know what's
causing that and hope to fix it at work.

Also, regarding nested TAP, what I wanted was this (ignoring the
'begin' stuff):

  ok 1 ...
    1..3
    ok 1
    ok 2
    not ok 3
  not ok 2 - sucess or failure of above block

However, that was shot down because we would need a TAP parser.

No we don't.  We only need a simple ok/not ok function for a block of
TAP.  No parsing at all!  I'll work on that today.  Barring things
going wrong, today is my "Gold Card Day" at work, so I can do any
damned thing I want :)

Cheers,
Ovid
