sure, but you can conditionally skip over those tests for users that don't
have Test::More installed. I know that currently doing that is kind of
ugly,
Am I correct to say that Test::More is in the core for all but 5.6.1 the
required minimum by mp2?
yes, but see below - we would have further version restrictions if we chose
to make T::M the engine for the entire mp2 test suite.
so if we make a dependency on Test::More only
the 5.6.1 users
anyway, in the end I guess I wouldn't suggest moving to T::M entirely
just
yet. but if you want to use it occasionally within certain tests I think
that's fine.
Of course another alternative is to bundle a sufficient version of T::M
under t/.
that's an idea. so long as it's not

that's an idea. so long as it's not installed with 'make install'. or
indexed by cpan either, I suppose.
anything living under t/ is not installed on 'make install' and not
scanned by PAUSE.

Most of the time when one needs to check when two values are different one
could run:
ok !t_cmp(...)
but the diagnostics is wrong, since received will be matching 'expected'
For example:
ok !t_cmp $received, qr/message/
# testing : whatever
# expected: (?-xism:message)
# received: [...]
