I do agree that it is annoying.

TAP in itself looks nice and require only that the target provides a way
to output data.

Then it should be possible to seed the result scripts through a TAP
parser on another machine, this might be enough to make the embedded
people happy.

The SUSE part is worse, I have the same problem on Solaris 10. My local
fix was to install the module from CPAN but it would be better if there
was a C implementation of a TAP parser that we could ship.

/MF

(Then there is the part of it that it is written in perl - I don't know 
 perl...)
