+ <!-- This is info for the Test::Builder::Tester module which may very well
+ be obsolete now. The packages that need it apparently also now need
+ Test::More-0.62 which is a core Perl module in an updated version. To
+ install the Test::More-0.62 version you must install the
+ Test::Simple-0.62 module which will overwrite the Perl core stuff.
+ The Test::Simple-0.62 module now includes the Test::Builder::Tester
+ module. Perl versions starting with Perl-5.9.x will have this module
+ include in the core at which time Test::Builder::Tester can be forever
+ removed from this page as it will then also be a core module.
