Hi all! Replying to myself, I should note that I found another problem in Test::Harness. Reading from the Test::Harness man page:
http://xrl.us/jb6q <============ =item C<HARNESS_PERL> Usually your tests will be run by C<$^X>, the currently-executing Perl. However, you may want to have it run by a different executable, such as a threading perl, or a different version. If you're using the F<prove> utility, you can use the C<--perl> switch. ============> However prove does not have a "--perl" switch: <========== $ prove --perl /usr/bin/perl t/*.t Unknown option: p ==========> I also cannot find it anywhere in the code. I hope some people would be able to address the issues I've raised after the weekend, as it is now the winters Holidays vacation. And before I forget: Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas, everyone!
