Let me rephrase then.
I feel dirty writing tests just to trip up testers who can't set up

I call those "non-functional tests", because they have very little
to do with
things that actually matter in my software.
I respectfully suggest that maybe there is another way of looking at
it, where the install process (governed by Makefile.PL/Build.PL) could
possibly be a "test driven installation" process:
use Test::More tests => 23;
unlike( $^X,qr{\s}, q{'$^X' has no spaces in the path} ) ||
BAIL_OUT(q{Cannot install.});
