An a matter of curiosity, since the Acme:: name space is intended as a joke, do we really need to /care about running the test-harness (if any)? I've always assumed that the joke was sufficient unto itself, and no one in the right mind would be using Acme modules in any real work. (I know, every few months someone pops up on PerlMonks asking abut using Acme::Bleach to 'protect' their code....)
