Test::Builder::Tester should smooth that over as of alpha 3. It's using a special TAP formatter which emulates TB1 quirks including the skip/SKIP thing. TBT's future is being sacrificed to work as a Test::Builder 0.x -> 1.5 compatibility layer. The behaviors you're testing with TBT will always be stuck in the past. Test::Tester also spans 0.x -> 1.5 but it does so with more grace. You should be able to leave your Test::Builder::Tester stuff alone, it'll work, but eventually you're going to want to change them. -- Robrt: People can't win Schwern: No, but they can riot after the game.
