This doesn't involve Test::Simple -- that .pm just happens to be the 
only visible file name "Simple.pm" once the tests cleanup their temp 
files.

The tests' Simple.pm is a sample distribution which is created and 
destroyed many times during the tests by t/lib/DistGen.pm.

That ^-- seems to be the problem, though I can't say offhand what would 
cause that.  That test has changed a bit since 0.2808, and IIRC there 
was some work done in Compat (possibly involving the error code.)

Can you repeat the error in trunk?
