Richard Elberger and I recently received co-maintenance bits on the
File-Path distribution. As is my wont, I ran it through Devel::Cover --
but was surprised to see that 'cover' reported zero coverage.

I hypothesized that perhaps results would be different if I were to move
./Path.pm to lib/File/Path.pm -- but I got the same results.
Does anyone know why File-Path is unresponsive to 'cover'?
Thank you very much.
