We have no diagnostics. We've never had diagnostics (the ad-hoc things going to 
STDERR don't count because they can't be synched or reliably parsed). Thus, I 
can't add diagnostics to the TODO tests until Schwern puts diagnostics in 
Test::Builder or accepts a patch.  That doesn't look like it's going to happen 
any time soon, so telling me to add diagnostics to TODO tests doesn't help :(

Thus, I'm trying to think of a way of solving my problem now, not at some 
hypothetical date in the future.

Cheers,
Ovid
