Perl Core Smoke Test Suite

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The perl core smoke test suite is a set of simple scripts that try to
run the perl core tests on as many configurations as possible and combine
that into a easy to parse report.

The perl source tree is refreshed using rsync to the latest level of the
perl development branche before the smoke tests start. Note that rsync in
the smoke uses --delete, which <b>removes</b> any existing files on that
directory that are not part of the perl source tree.
