We recently merged in support for subunit [0], which claims to have
amongst others "subunit2junitxml - convert a subunit stream to a JUnit
XML representation.".

That sounds to me very much like the same functionality. Having two
ways of getting the same result seems suboptimal to me. But I haven't
looked into subunit yet, so I'm not sure if it is cross-platform and
easily installable. I'd love to see someone write up some
documentation on how to use it inside Hudson ;)
