Even though keeping track of list of known-leaky tests may not be so
interesting, we can still salvage useful pieces from the discussion
and make them available to developers, e.g.  something like

    prove --dry --state=failed |
    perl -lne '/^(t[0-9]{4})-.*\.sh$/ and print $1' | sort >$@+
    if cmp >/dev/null $@ $@+; then rm $@+; else mv $@+ $@; fi

could be made into a target to stash away the list of failing tests
after a test run?
