I have no problem with a test suite to be included in SUBDIRS, but if
that's a template test it would be better if added in ALWAYS_SUBDIRS.
I think as well that having it in src/test/perl/example_suite would
make more sense.

The usual format for README files is more like that:

Text, blah.

I think that it would be better to stick with the common style in
place. Except that this file is definitely a good addition.

I am -1 for including a forced version number in the list of
inclusions. We have been careful about not using routines that are not
supported with perl < 5.8.8. Let's continue like that. Simply
mentioning in the README this minimal requirement is enough IMO.

pod format... Do we really want that? Considering that those modules
are only aimed at being dedicated for in-core testing, I would say no.

Header format should be reworked here as well.

This patch is going a bit more far than I expected first, I thought
that this would be only a set of README files added into core. And it
is not completely clear what we would gain by using perlpod in the
case of those in-core modules.
