"not break" in what sense? From my reading, Test::Harness::Straps only
operates by way of Test::Harness dispatching all work through it.
Since Test::Harness 3.0 will not do this, Test::Harness::Straps will
be "not used" and therefore code relying on it will "not work", when
Test::Harness->VERSION > 2.99, right?
The installation of Test::Harness 3.0 means any code which needs the 2.x
interface needs a 2.x Test::Harness and sufficient PERL5LIB or other
@INC juggling.
