This looks like it might be the same bug in Test::More that affected
Test::Class:

With the same fix applied to my testing perl, this error ...

t/00-load.................
# Failed test 'use Test::Group;'
# at t/00-load.t line 6.
# Tried to use 'Test::Group'.

cpan/build/Test-Group-0.06/blib/lib/Test/Group.pm line 640.
