Have you tried running the test suite with Devel::Cover ?  It replaces 
the Perl_runops() loop with a version that accounts which lines of the 
source code are actually run by a series of test scripts... much better 
than the approach taken by Devel::Coverage, for instance.  This can tell 
you whether it really is 70% or more like 30% :-).
