A patch for the glob-basic test was posted here on 17 Mar.
The piping changes depend on PERL_ROOT being defined so that the
DCL wrapper file can be found when spawning subprocesses; in
discussion with Charles Bailey it was clear that other approaches
(writing local tempfiles) weren't very secure...and I don't much
like the idea of "hard-coding" a directory spec into the code.
Is it worth looking for a different method just so we can avoid
using PERL_ROOT during build/test?
