Andy (and anybody else who's following this ticket), Can you please copy the 4 files attached to a sandbox for trunk and run them (e.g., perl Configure.pl --test=configure)?
In my first attempt to write tests for Andy Lester's option_or_data()
function I figured it would be best to work with the same option he was
using that method for: 'cc'. But, as Andy Dougherty has demonstrated,
that runs into complications with a package like
config/init/hints/solaris.pm which has callbacks.
But for testing purposes we can use *any* Parrot command-line option
which has the same name as a key in the Parrot::Configure object's {c}
structure. So in revamping the tests I figured I'd test an option which
is determined much earlier in the configuration process and is much
simpler: --bindir.
Please let me know if these tests pass on all OSes. Thank you very much.
