Let's see, we worked-around the inflated argument list by removing @INC
directories that don't exist and then it fails a test on adding a
directory that doesn't exist to @INC.
plan skip_all => '...' if(-e '/etc/redhat-release');
(or maybe check `perl --version` for something indicative?)
Seriously, just skip anything that causes the least bit of trouble and
print a big warning about peRHl being of questionable compatibility.
At least then it will function in most cases and whoever finds the
weird bits can send patches or bug their vendor.

AFAICT, the conclusion was "install perl".
