CPAN::Reporter has, since the beginning, only reported on the output
of the phase (PL, make, test) that failed.  Originally, that was a
result of the fact that it only supported the test phase, not the PL
or make phases.  If a phase passes, the report output isn't clogged
with the results.  (E.g. all the compilation output for an XS module
or other library.)

At one point, David Cantrell had volunteered to write Devel::AssertLib
to complement Devel::AssertOS.  Presumably, when that is done, you'll
be able to bundle it in inc/ and do this:

use 'inc';
use Devel::AssertLib '-lhid';
# rest of Build.PL follows as normal

If David hasn't made a lot of progress on that, I'm willing to take it on.

Regards,
David
