OK, I give up. How to I communicate to the CPAN testing framework that
the test machine is missing a required/vital external binary and should
just NA this test? I've replicated the way that the code itself
searches for the binary (svnlook if you care) in my Build.PL, and I'm
using 'exit 0', which is what is supposed to make CPAN itself happy to
stop. But the damn CPAN Testing framework is trying to grovel around
inside the [now ungenerated] _cpan/prereqs file:
http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2008/03/msg1108978.html
Do I die instead? ARRRRGGGGGGG!
TIA
