It's not always true. Some dependicies are more tied and the code won't
build without the pre-requisit installed. Hopefully it's not a case in the
modules required by Apache-Test.

Yes, if we are using BSD::Resource. I'm not sure how can you do it from
Perl if using 'ulimit' shell's built-in command.
We want to end up with the build system that makes it the easiest for
users to report problems, so what's your best bet on setting up the env
for getting core files? Make a dependency on BSD::Resourse (not working
everywhere) or trying to rely on shell features?
I'm still thinking that just adding:
ulimit -c unlimited
just before ./t/TEST is run in Makefile, is the simplest solution. Or
would this have cross-platform problems.
