Also you don't want it to always be true.  You want it to reflect whether

Well, at first I didn't think that I'd want it, but after seeing your
suggestion, I realized that perhaps in some cases someone would want
it when the test fails, and there is no reason not to give it to them.

Well, maybe backwards compatibility would be a reason, but I already
have many dependencies on recent versions of Perl lurking about. I
consider my project 'proof of concept' and that's one desire that
dropped off the priority list.

I appreciate all the feedback. I know what I'm going to try. I'll let
thelist know how it works out.
