So how, then, do I tell the testing system "this module only works on
Unix-like filesystems on Unix-like OSes"?
Indeed, I have similar questions.
Personally, I would have expected it would have something to do with the
Makefile.PL returning with a particular error code.
So you define a set of numbers to say things like "Will not work in this
environment, don't even try", or "I don't have all my dependencies" etc etc.
And you maybe Makefile.PL and Build.PL share those same error codes.
But like I said, I don't know what the current situation is.
