Well, it appears to keep STDIN and STDERR in synch and I desperately needed that. I don't know of any other way of doing this reliable (my hack to keep them in synch by overriding an internal Test::Builder function worked just fine, but that only works with tests using Test::Builder. I really think that TAPx::Parser is great and is something I'd love to see get moved into CORE, but until I can nail down a few final Windows issues, I can't see anyone agreeing to this.
