Write unit tests for config/gen/config_h.pm, 
the module whose functionality executes Parrot 
configuration step gen::config_h.

Some tests have already been written for this module in the 
'reconfigure' branch of the Parrot repository; see 
t/configure/150-gen_config_h.t in that branch
(http://svn.perl.org/parrot/branches/reconfigure/).

Some hints for how to proceed with testing may be found 
in that test file as well, including the following:

"(At last!  A config/ package with somewhat
adequate documentation!)  Consider testing the content of the files
which the POD claims the module creates."

Reports of the extent to which tests in the 'reconfigure' 
branch's t/configure/ directory cover the code in 
config/*/*.pm packages may be found here:  
http://thenceforward.net/parrot/coverage/configure-build/coverage.html

Happy hacking!
