+The files in this directory test the publicly callable methods of 
+Parrot::Pmc2c::Utils.  By doing so, they test the functionality 
+of the pmc2c.pl utility.
+
+Since pmc2c.pl is invoked many times during 'make', tests of its 
+functionality can give meaningful results only if you run them 
+when your file system under the top-level Parrot directory is in 
+a 'pre-make' state, i.e., you have run 'perl Configure.pl' but 
+have *not* yet run 'make'.  These tests should pass if run at 
+that point in the build process, but some will necessarily fail 
+if 'make' has already been executed.  Hence, they should not be 
+included in the set of tests run by 'make test'.
+
+In short, these are tests of Parrot::Pmc2c::Utils but are *not* 
+tests of Parrot itself.
