That would mean that as of CPAN::Reporter 1.00, any Makefile.PL or
Build.PL could just "exit 0" before creating a Makefile or Build and
no CPAN Testers report would be issued.  That seems like it would be
quite useful as an option for manually aborting when non-Perl
prerequisites are missing.

Agreed. (Makefile.PL's have already been modified accordingly in preparation for the next release ... though that probably won't happen for a while.)

Thanks guys.

Cheers,
Rob
