This looks like an anomaly with my build environment.  I did a fresh
5.12.2 checkout and build, and built mp 2.0.5-dev against httpd
2.2.15.  Build was ok and 100% of tests passed.

Once Apache::Test 1.33 and the next version if SizeLimit are released,
it is looking good for a 2.0.5 RC imho.  Please take a minute to test
out the latest A:T RC.
