How are you getting recursive tests by default anywhere?

Why you would need to patch prove or runtests?

I just temporarily changed the Build.PL for Test::MockObject (which stores 
author-only tests in t/developer/) not to filter out that directory in the 
find_test_files() files method, and the developer tests still didn't run.

I don't understand why you're having trouble with recursive tests, and that's 
maybe why I don't think this is a problem at all.  I've not encountered it, 
and I'm curious how you have.
