So, we can either use one generic test script, and write the perl6
ourselves...or
we can create N specific test scripts which generate the perl6 for us given
a particular data set and after we have written the perl6 ourselves.  Sounds
like duplication of effort and a maintenance problem to me.  I would rather
stick with writing the perl6 and its output.
