I'm writing Test::Pod::URI, which is going to follow pretty much the
same structure as Test::Pod::Coverage. As such, I've got a subroutine
all_pod_uris_ok() which will find all the POD files in a distro and test
them using the pod_uris_ok() subroutine. Each one of those calls is a
test, so it counts the number of files it finds, and asserts that number
as its planned number of tests (using Test::Builder's plan() method).
So, I created a test using Test::Builder::Tester to test it which
basically lies to the subroutine about where it should look for the POD,
and it seems to work OK apart from the fact that I can't actually make
the planning work - all_pod_uris_ok() asserts a plan, and because I'm
using Test::Builder::Tester that plan still gets asserted in the scope
of the test, so Test::More complains when I try to plan the number of
Test::Builder::Tester tests I'm running.
Any clues how to overcome the problem?
The only solution I've thought of so far is to add a back door way to
make it not assert a plan at all. Which works, but it seems... wrong.

P.S. Test::Pod::Coverage doesn't seem to test its all_pod_coverage_ok()
subroutine, except by running it on itself. I wonder if this is why....
