Ah, didn't know that. Thanks.
However, that still doesn't explain my other example:
Regexp-Common-2.120 $ perl t/test_no_import.t
1..3
ok 1
ok 2
ok 3 # $; eq "\034"
Test::Harness thinks that's just fine. If the unescaped hash mark was
forbidden (as I originally had it), then the last line gets marked as junk
(TAPx::Parser::Results::Unknown) and doesn't get counted as a test. Only by
changing my code and deliberately allowing that hash mark was I able to parse
Regexp::Common's tests.
Cheers,
