From a parser standpoint, there's no clean way of distinguishing that
from what the test functions are going to output. As a result, I
really think that "diag" and normal test failure information should be
marked differently (instead of the /^# / that we see).

I've thought in the past about about using /^## / for non-test
related diagnostics
## Start the fribble tests
ok 1 - fribble foo
not ok 2 - fribble bar
# Failed test 'fribble bar'
# in untitled text 2 at line 5.
# got: 'baz'
# expected: 'bar'
## Start the blart tests
# ok 1 - blart foo
... etc ...
Reads reasonably to me and has the advantage of being backward
compatible.
