All this Haskell programming has opened my eyes to what our multimethod

a pattern matcher. But it's a pretty terrible one.

By singleton do you mean that there's only ever 1 Test::Builder::Counter and
it's shared between all the Test::Builder objects? That's necessary in order
to maintain consitent numbering of tests but it doesn't allow for a
second counter to be established to temporarily count subtests (for example
