When I was developing tests for the functionality refactored out of  
ops2pm.pl a couple of months ago, I needed a package to hold  
subroutines used in >= 1 of my test scripts to capture data printed  
to STDOUT or STDERR for later analysis.  I stuck a small package,  
based on CPAN distribution IO::Capture, in a testlib/ directory  
underneath the directory holding the tests.

By the time I got to work on ops2c.pl, I realized that those  
subroutines would be better placed under lib/Parrot so that they're  
more clearly available for all Perl 5 components of Parrot.   I  
created Parrot::IO::Capture::Mini and used it in t/tools/ops2cutils/*.t.

Task:  Switch the tests in t/tools/ops2pmutils/ over to using  
Parrot::IO::Capture::Mini; eliminate testlib/Capture.pm.
