Oh, never mind: after digging into the test source I eventually realized
that there's an initdb happening between tests 10 and 11, and that's
what's eating the time. It might be a thought to print something to
indicate that a time-consuming step is happening; but the lack of any
feedback here isn't exactly IPC::Run's fault.
Anyway, I can confirm Peter's statement that the current tests work even
on quite old platforms, as long as you install IPC::Run.
